Arguments

x	(Optional) A vector containing the names or indices of the predictor variables to use in building the model. If x is missing, then all columns except y are used.
y	The name or column index of the response variable in the data. The response must be either a numeric or a categorical/factor variable. If the response is numeric, then a regression model will be trained, otherwise it will train a classification model.
training_frame	Id of the training data frame.
gam_columns	Arrays of predictor column names for gam for smoothers using single or multiple predictors like {{'c1'},{'c2','c3'},{'c4'},...}
model_id	Destination id for this model; auto-generated if not specified.
validation_frame	Id of the validation data frame.
nfolds	Number of folds for K-fold cross-validation (0 to disable or >= 2). Defaults to 0.
seed	Seed for random numbers (affects certain parts of the algo that are stochastic and those might or might not be enabled by default). Defaults to -1 (time-based random number).
keep_cross_validation_models	Logical. Whether to keep the cross-validation models. Defaults to TRUE.
keep_cross_validation_predictions	Logical. Whether to keep the predictions of the cross-validation models. Defaults to FALSE.
keep_cross_validation_fold_assignment	Logical. Whether to keep the cross-validation fold assignment. Defaults to FALSE.
fold_assignment	Cross-validation fold assignment scheme, if fold_column is not specified. The 'Stratified' option will stratify the folds based on the response variable, for classification problems. Must be one of: "AUTO", "Random", "Modulo", "Stratified". Defaults to AUTO.
fold_column	Column with cross-validation fold index assignment per observation.
ignore_const_cols	Logical. Ignore constant columns. Defaults to TRUE.
score_each_iteration	Logical. Whether to score during each iteration of model training. Defaults to FALSE.
offset_column	Offset column. This will be added to the combination of columns before applying the link function.
weights_column	Column with observation weights. Giving some observation a weight of zero is equivalent to excluding it from the dataset; giving an observation a relative weight of 2 is equivalent to repeating that row twice. Negative weights are not allowed. Note: Weights are per-row observation weights and do not increase the size of the data frame. This is typically the number of times a row is repeated, but non-integer values are supported as well. During training, rows with higher weights matter more, due to the larger loss function pre-factor. If you set weight = 0 for a row, the returned prediction frame at that row is zero and this is incorrect. To get an accurate prediction, remove all rows with weight == 0.
family	Family. Use binomial for classification with logistic regression, others are for regression problems. Must be one of: "AUTO", "gaussian", "binomial", "quasibinomial", "ordinal", "multinomial", "poisson", "gamma", "tweedie", "negativebinomial", "fractionalbinomial". Defaults to AUTO.
tweedie_variance_power	Tweedie variance power Defaults to 0.
tweedie_link_power	Tweedie link power Defaults to 0.
theta	Theta Defaults to 0.
solver	AUTO will set the solver based on given data and the other parameters. IRLSM is fast on on problems with small number of predictors and for lambda-search with L1 penalty, L_BFGS scales better for datasets with many columns. Must be one of: "AUTO", "IRLSM", "L_BFGS", "COORDINATE_DESCENT_NAIVE", "COORDINATE_DESCENT", "GRADIENT_DESCENT_LH", "GRADIENT_DESCENT_SQERR". Defaults to AUTO.
alpha	Distribution of regularization between the L1 (Lasso) and L2 (Ridge) penalties. A value of 1 for alpha represents Lasso regression, a value of 0 produces Ridge regression, and anything in between specifies the amount of mixing between the two. Default value of alpha is 0 when SOLVER = 'L-BFGS'; 0.5 otherwise.
lambda	Regularization strength
lambda_search	Logical. Use lambda search starting at lambda max, given lambda is then interpreted as lambda min Defaults to FALSE.
early_stopping	Logical. Stop early when there is no more relative improvement on train or validation (if provided) Defaults to TRUE.
nlambdas	Number of lambdas to be used in a search. Default indicates: If alpha is zero, with lambda search set to True, the value of nlamdas is set to 30 (fewer lambdas are needed for ridge regression) otherwise it is set to 100. Defaults to -1.
standardize	Logical. Standardize numeric columns to have zero mean and unit variance Defaults to FALSE.
missing_values_handling	Handling of missing values. Either MeanImputation, Skip or PlugValues. Must be one of: "MeanImputation", "Skip", "PlugValues". Defaults to MeanImputation.
plug_values	Plug Values (a single row frame containing values that will be used to impute missing values of the training/validation frame, use with conjunction missing_values_handling = PlugValues)
compute_p_values	Logical. Request p-values computation, p-values work only with IRLSM solver and no regularization Defaults to FALSE.
remove_collinear_columns	Logical. In case of linearly dependent columns, remove some of the dependent columns Defaults to FALSE.
splines_non_negative	Valid for I-spline (bs=2) only. True if the I-splines are monotonically increasing (and monotonically non- decreasing) and False if the I-splines are monotonically decreasing (and monotonically non-increasing). If specified, must be the same size as gam_columns. Values for other spline types will be ignored. Default to true.
intercept	Logical. Include constant term in the model Defaults to TRUE.
non_negative	Logical. Restrict coefficients (not intercept) to be non-negative Defaults to FALSE.
max_iterations	Maximum number of iterations Defaults to -1.
objective_epsilon	Converge if objective value changes less than this. Default indicates: If lambda_search is set to True the value of objective_epsilon is set to .0001. If the lambda_search is set to False and lambda is equal to zero, the value of objective_epsilon is set to .000001, for any other value of lambda the default value of objective_epsilon is set to .0001. Defaults to -1.
beta_epsilon	Converge if beta changes less (using L-infinity norm) than beta esilon, ONLY applies to IRLSM solver Defaults to 0.0001.
gradient_epsilon	Converge if objective changes less (using L-infinity norm) than this, ONLY applies to L-BFGS solver. Default indicates: If lambda_search is set to False and lambda is equal to zero, the default value of gradient_epsilon is equal to .000001, otherwise the default value is .0001. If lambda_search is set to True, the conditional values above are 1E-8 and 1E-6 respectively. Defaults to -1.
link	Link function. Must be one of: "family_default", "identity", "logit", "log", "inverse", "tweedie", "ologit". Defaults to family_default.
startval	double array to initialize coefficients for GAM.
prior	Prior probability for y==1. To be used only for logistic regression iff the data has been sampled and the mean of response does not reflect reality. Defaults to -1.
cold_start	Logical. Only applicable to multiple alpha/lambda values when calling GLM from GAM. If false, build the next model for next set of alpha/lambda values starting from the values provided by current model. If true will start GLM model from scratch. Defaults to FALSE.
lambda_min_ratio	Minimum lambda used in lambda search, specified as a ratio of lambda_max (the smallest lambda that drives all coefficients to zero). Default indicates: if the number of observations is greater than the number of variables, then lambda_min_ratio is set to 0.0001; if the number of observations is less than the number of variables, then lambda_min_ratio is set to 0.01. Defaults to -1.
beta_constraints	Beta constraints
max_active_predictors	Maximum number of active predictors during computation. Use as a stopping criterion to prevent expensive model building with many predictors. Default indicates: If the IRLSM solver is used, the value of max_active_predictors is set to 5000 otherwise it is set to 100000000. Defaults to -1.
interactions	A list of predictor column indices to interact. All pairwise combinations will be computed for the list.
interaction_pairs	A list of pairwise (first order) column interactions.
obj_reg	Likelihood divider in objective value computation, default is 1/nobs Defaults to -1.
