Name your decision forest models

[alex-ashford-ovo]

I would like to be able to explicitly name my model. I've seen that the models have a name attribute but it does not appear to be possible to set this manually.

I've tried:

setattr(model, 'name', 'my_cool_model')

And:

tfdf.keras.RandomForestModel(name = 'my_cool_model')

The error indicates that the attribute name is already used. You can use another name e.g. model.model_name = 'my_cool_model' will work.

Alternatively, you can store this model in a new class e.g. ModelAndMetaData. This way, there is no risk to override an existing attribute and possibly perturbe the internal logic of the model.

Is this not a functionality gap as you can do this with the standard keras API?

[achoum]

You are right. I did not realize this was part of the Keras API :).

The change has been submitted, and it will be part of the next TF-DF release (v0.1.8).

Thank you :)
