Save and load XGBoost models using joblib.
We'll cover the following
Chapter Goals:
- Save and load XGBoost models with the joblib API
A. The joblib API
Since the XGBClassifier
and XGBRegressor
models follow the same format as scikit-learn models, we can save and load them in the same way. This means using the joblib API.
With the joblib API, we save and load models using the dump
and load
functions, respectively. See here for specific examples on model persistence with scikit-learn models.
