Fit and predict in a single SageMaker training job.

Fits a TabularPredictor on train_data and predicts on test_data in the same job, which is faster than fit() followed by predict(). The predictor stays fitted, so deploy() and predict() still work afterward.

Parameters:

  • train_data (str | pathlib.Path | pd.DataFrame) – Training data, as a pd.DataFrame or local/S3 path to a data file.

  • test_data (str | pathlib.Path | pd.DataFrame) – Data to predict on, as a pd.DataFrame or local/S3 path to a data file. Must contain every feature column present in train_data (the label column is not required).

  • predictor_init_args (dict) – Arguments forwarded to TabularPredictor(), e.g. {"label": "target"}.

  • predictor_fit_args (dict | None, default = None) – Additional fit args forwarded to TabularPredictor.fit(). Must NOT contain train_data or tuning_data.

  • leaderboard (bool, default = True) – Whether to include the leaderboard in the output artifact.

  • framework_version (str, optional) – AutoGluon version, e.g. "1.6". Training uses the official AutoGluon DLC image for this version. Ignored if custom_image_uri is set.

  • job_name (str | None, default = None) – Name of the training job. If None, a unique name with prefix ag-cloud-tabular is generated.

  • instance_type (str, default = "ml.m5.2xlarge") – Instance type of the training job.

  • instance_count (int, default = 1) – Number of training instances. Only single-instance training is supported.

  • volume_size (int, default = 100) – Size in GB of the EBS volume that stores the training data and model artifacts.

  • custom_image_uri (str | None, default = None) – Custom training container image URI. If set, framework_version is ignored.

  • wait (bool, default = True) – Whether to block until the job completes. If False, returns None once the job is launched.

  • predictions_path (str | None, default = None) – S3 URL of the predictions file, ending in .csv or .parquet. Defaults to {cloud_output_path}/{job_name}/predictions.csv.

  • backend_overrides (dict[str, dict[str, Any]] | None, default = None) –

    Raw SageMaker request fields for settings without a dedicated argument.

    • Keys: request names from the SageMaker API section below.

    • Values: request fields in PascalCase, as in the SageMaker API and boto3. Deep-merged over the request built by AutoGluon-Cloud; lists and other non-dict values replace the generated ones.

    • Example: {"CreateTrainingJob": {"RetryStrategy": {"MaximumRetryAttempts": 2}}}

Returns:

pd.Series | None – Predictions, or None if wait=False; fetch them later with get_fit_predict_results().

SageMaker API

  • CreateTrainingJob: trains the predictor and predicts in the same job on instance_count x instance_type. Predictions are written to predictions_path.
