"""Load datasets in the svmlight / libsvm format into sparse CSR matrix
This format is a text-based format, with one sample per line. It does
not store zero valued features hence is suitable for sparse dataset.
The first element of each line can be used to store a target variable
to predict.
This format is used as the default format for both svmlight and the
libsvm command line programs.
Parsing a text based source can be expensive. When working on
repeatedly on the same dataset, it is recommended to wrap this
loader with joblib.Memory.cache to store a memmapped backup of the
CSR results of the first call and benefit from the near instantaneous
loading of memmapped structures for the subsequent calls.
This implementation is naive: it does allocate too much memory and
is slow since written in python. On large datasets it is recommended
to use an optimized loader such as:
https://github.com/mblondel/svmlight-loader
In case the file contains a pairwise preference constraint (known
as "qid" in the svmlight format) these are ignored unless the
query_id parameter is set to True. These pairwise preference
constraints can be used to contraint the combination of samples
when using pairwise loss functions (as is the case in some
learning to rank problems) so that only pairs with the same
query_id value are considered.
Parameters
----------
f: {str, file-like, int}
(Path to) a file to load. If a path ends in ".gz" or ".bz2", it will
be uncompressed on the fly. If an integer is passed, it is assumed to
be a file descriptor. A file-like or file descriptor will not be closed
by this function. A file-like object must be opened in binary mode.
n_features: int or None
The number of features to use. If None, it will be inferred. This
argument is useful to load several files that are subsets of a
bigger sliced dataset: each subset might not have example of
every feature, hence the inferred shape might vary from one
slice to another.
multilabel: boolean, optional
Samples may have several labels each (see
http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvmtools/datasets/multilabel.html)
zero_based: boolean or "auto", optional
Whether column indices in f are zero-based (True) or one-based
(False). If column indices are one-based, they are transformed to
zero-based to match Python/NumPy conventions.
If set to "auto", a heuristic check is applied to determine this from
the file contents. Both kinds of files occur "in the wild", but they
are unfortunately not self-identifying. Using "auto" or True should
always be safe.
query_id: boolean, defaults to False
If True, will return the query_id array for each file.
Returns
-------
X: scipy.sparse matrix of shape (n_samples, n_features)
y: ndarray of shape (n_samples,), or, in the multilabel a list of
tuples of length n_samples.
query_id: array of shape (n_samples,)
query_id for each sample. Only returned when query_id is set to
True.

load_svmlight_files: similar function for loading multiple files in this
format, enforcing the same number of features/columns on all of them.

"""Load dataset from multiple files in SVMlight format
This function is equivalent to mapping load_svmlight_file over a list of
files, except that the results are concatenated into a single, flat list
and the samples vectors are constrained to all have the same number of
features.
In case the file contains a pairwise preference constraint (known
as "qid" in the svmlight format) these are ignored unless the
query_id parameter is set to True. These pairwise preference
constraints can be used to constraint the combination of samples
when using pairwise loss functions (as is the case in some
learning to rank problems) so that only pairs with the same
query_id value are considered.
Parameters
----------
files : iterable over {str, file-like, int}
(Paths of) files to load. If a path ends in ".gz" or ".bz2", it will
be uncompressed on the fly. If an integer is passed, it is assumed to
be a file descriptor. File-likes and file descriptors will not be
closed by this function. File-like objects must be opened in binary
mode.
n_features: int or None
The number of features to use. If None, it will be inferred from the
maximum column index occurring in any of the files.
multilabel: boolean, optional
Samples may have several labels each (see
http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvmtools/datasets/multilabel.html)
zero_based: boolean or "auto", optional
Whether column indices in f are zero-based (True) or one-based
(False). If column indices are one-based, they are transformed to
zero-based to match Python/NumPy conventions.
If set to "auto", a heuristic check is applied to determine this from
the file contents. Both kinds of files occur "in the wild", but they
are unfortunately not self-identifying. Using "auto" or True should
always be safe.
query_id: boolean, defaults to False
If True, will return the query_id array for each file.
Returns
-------
[X1, y1, ..., Xn, yn]
where each (Xi, yi) pair is the result from load_svmlight_file(files[i]).
If query_id is set to True, this will return instead [X1, y1, q1,
..., Xn, yn, qn] where (Xi, yi, qi) is the result from
load_svmlight_file(files[i])
Rationale
---------
When fitting a model to a matrix X_train and evaluating it against a
matrix X_test, it is essential that X_train and X_test have the same
number of features (X_train.shape[1] == X_test.shape[1]). This may not
be the case if you load the files individually with load_svmlight_file.
