Reference Issues/PRs

Part of issue #21308 . This is the same PR as #21459 (I got into some git issue with the last PR )

What does this implement/fix? Explain your changes.

Implementing get_feature_names_out for RandomForestEmbedding, VotingClassifier, VotingRegressor, StackingClassifier and StackingRegressor, with corresponding test cases.

Thank you for the PR @MaxwellLZH ! I recommend breaking this PR into 3 PRs:

  1. Keep this one for RandomTreesEmbedding.
  2. Another for Voting*
  3. Another for Stacking* (Do not start this one until Voting* is complete since they are related and will have the same discussions)

This is because I think there is an argument for generating more descriptive names for each of the cases above.

I think it is better to explicitly test the public API. We can transform and get the number of features out:

    n_features_out = hasher.transform(X).shape[1]
    assert_array_equal(
        [f"randomtreesembedding{i}" for i in range(n_features_out)], names
    )

There is an argument for using something like randomtreesembedding_3_10, where 3 is represents the tree that used to generate the leaf, and 10 is the leaf index.

Shall I leave the naming as it is for now? if we decided to go for randomtreesembedding_{i}_{j} then we can change the test cases accordingly later?

We need to make a decision in this PR. I like using randomtreesembedding_{i}_{j}, can we update this PR to use this formatting and see what other reviewers think?

This means a custom get_feature_names_out for tree embedding.

I've added a custom get_feature_names_out for tree embedding, where i is tree index starting from 1 and j is leaf index as suggested.

Thanks for the update! I am happy with the naming for the features here. Let's see what other reviewers think.

LGTM once the suggestions below as taken into account. I found the feature names surprising so I think it's was necessary to make the docstring more explicit and add an inline comment in the test.

Do you think it is better to ignore the internal indices from the trees and use 0, 1, 2, etc for the leaf indices?

I am okay with that option as well.

The current implementation is more informative but potentially a bit confusing. Using contiguous, leaf-only indexing would make the feature names less dependent on the internal tree data-structure but in a way this internal detail is already part of the public API because those are the indices returned by the apply public method.

So +0 for keeping the current indexing / naming scheme.

I don't have a strong preference. I'm fine with reflecting the tree structure with the additional comments from Olivier. It might make it easier to debug if needed as well.
