The problem with trying to use a general method like this is that it's hard to capture model-specific requirements. This currently misses checking to make sure that exactly one (not just <= 1) of each pair is available, plus that all of the single-column OR all of the multi-column Params are available. (The same issue occurs in #20146 ) It will also be hard to check these items and account for defaults.

I'd argue that it's not worth trying to use generic checking functions here.

my initial implementation (with @hhbyyh's comments) was more generic and checked what you said. After, @MLnick and @viirya asked to switch to a more generic approach which is the current you see. I'm fine with either of those, but I think we need to choose one way and go in that direction, otherwise we just loose time.

I see. I'll see if I can come up with something which is generic but handles these other checks.

Let's switch this to use the Logging trait, to match other MLlib patterns.

If we need to check other exclusive params, e.g., inputCol and splitsArray or inputCols and splits, why not just have a method like:

def checkExclusiveParams(model: Params, params: String*): Unit = {
  if (params.filter(model.isSet(_)).size > 1) {
    val paramString = params.mkString("`", "`, `", "`")
    throw new IllegalArgumentException(s"$paramString are exclusive, but more than one among them are set.")
  }

I added this method too in #20146.

I am not sure if #20146 will get merged for 2.3 - but I think we must merge this PR for 2.3 because I'd prefer not to have this inconsistency in param error handling between QuantileDiscretizer and Bucketizer. This is a relatively small change, so we can merge it into the branch if we move it quickly.

Based on #20146 (comment) from @WeichenXu123, I think #20146 cannot get merged for 2.3.

If this method looks good to you, maybe you can just copy it from #20146 to use here.

@MLnick @viirya in order to address https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/19993/files#r161682506, I was thinking to let this method as it is (just renaming it as per @viirya suggestion) and only adding an additionalExclusiveParams: (String, String)* argument to the function. WDYT?

I think @viirya's method is simpler and more general, so why not use it?

@viirya your actual method in #20146 is slightly different (see here). Is that the best version to use?

@MLnick Yes. I didn't test the method posted here. The model possibly doesn't have the params, so we need to check it with model.hasParam. Please use the method in #20146.


if (existingParams.count(paramName => model.isSet(model.getParam(paramName))) > 1) {
val paramString = existingParams.mkString("`", "`, `", "`")
throw new IllegalArgumentException(s"$paramString are exclusive, " +
"but more than one among them are set.")
}
}
}

We should also test the other exclusive params (input cols and splits params) as per https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/19993/files#r159133936

Only comment I have is that I believe this line is not testing what you may think.

As I read the checkSingleVsMultiColumnParams method, in this test case it will throw the error, not because both splits and splitsArray are set, but rather because both inputCol & inputCols are unset.

Actually it applies to the line above too.

@MLnick actually it will fail for both reasons. We can add more test cases to check each of these two cases if you think it is needed.
