- Use the `linalg::Matrix` for storing gradients.
- New API for the custom objective.
- Custom objective for multi-class/multi-target is now required to return the correct shape.
- Custom objective for Python can accept arrays with any strides. (row-major, column-major)
- Rewrite GPU demos. notebook is converted to script to avoid committing additional png plots.
- Add GPU demos into the sphinx gallery.
- Add RMM demos into the sphinx gallery.
- Test for firing threads with different device ordinals.
* Support sklearn cross validation for ranker.
- Add a convention for X to include a special `qid` column.
sklearn utilities consider only `X`, `y` and `sample_weight` for supervised learning
algorithms, but we need an additional qid array for ranking.
It's important to be able to support the cross validation function in sklearn since all
other tuning functions like grid search are based on cross validation.
* Replace all uses of deprecated function sklearn.datasets.load_boston
* More renaming
* Fix bad name
* Update assertion
* Fix n boosted rounds.
* Avoid over regularization.
* Rebase.
* Avoid over regularization.
* Whac-a-mole

* Add num target model parameter, which is configured from input labels.
* Change elementwise metric and indexing for weights.
* Add demo.
* Add tests.
This is already partially supported but never properly tested. So the only possible way to use it is calling `numpy.ndarray.flatten` with `base_margin` before passing it into XGBoost. This PR adds proper support
for most of the data types along with tests.
* Do not derive from unittest.TestCase (not needed for pytest)
* assertRaises -> pytest.raises
* Simplify test_empty_dmatrix with test parametrization
* setUpClass -> setup_class, tearDownClass -> teardown_class
* Don't import unittest; import pytest
* Use plain assert
* Use parametrized tests in more places
* Fix test_gpu_with_sklearn.py
* Put back run_empty_dmatrix_reg / run_empty_dmatrix_cls
* Fix test_eta_decay_gpu_hist
* Add parametrized tests for monotone constraints
* Fix test names
* Remove test parametrization
* Revise test_slice to be not flaky
* Fix syncing DMatrix columns.
* notes for tree method.
* Enable feature validation for all interfaces except for jvm.
* Better tests for boosting from predictions.
* Disable validation on JVM.
