            .. versionadded:: 1.3.0

            Experimental support of specializing for categorical features.  Do not set to
            True unless you are interested in development.  Currently it's only available
            for `gpu_hist` tree method with 1 vs rest (one hot) categorical split.  Also,
            JSON serialization format is required.

            <https://xgboost.readthedocs.io/en/latest/prediction.html>`_
            for issues like thread safety and a summary of outputs from this function.

        Parameters
        ----------
        data :
            The dmatrix storing the input.

        output_margin :
            Whether to output the raw untransformed margin value.

        ntree_limit :
            Deprecated, use `iteration_range` instead.

        pred_leaf :
            When this option is on, the output will be a matrix of (nsample,
            ntrees) with each record indicating the predicted leaf index of
            each sample in each tree.  Note that the leaf index of a tree is
            unique per tree, so you may find leaf 1 in both tree 1 and tree 0.

        pred_contribs :
            When this is True the output will be a matrix of size (nsample,
            nfeats + 1) with each record indicating the feature contributions
            (SHAP values) for that prediction. The sum of all feature
            contributions is equal to the raw untransformed margin value of the
            prediction. Note the final column is the bias term.

        approx_contribs :
            Approximate the contributions of each feature.  Used when ``pred_contribs`` or
            ``pred_interactions`` is set to True.  Changing the default of this parameter
            (False) is not recommended.

        pred_interactions :
            When this is True the output will be a matrix of size (nsample,
            nfeats + 1, nfeats + 1) indicating the SHAP interaction values for
            each pair of features. The sum of each row (or column) of the
            interaction values equals the corresponding SHAP value (from
            pred_contribs), and the sum of the entire matrix equals the raw
            untransformed margin value of the prediction. Note the last row and
            column correspond to the bias term.

        validate_features :
            When this is True, validate that the Booster's and data's
            feature_names are identical.  Otherwise, it is assumed that the
            feature_names are the same.

        training :
            Whether the prediction value is used for training.  This can effect `dart`
            booster, which performs dropouts during training iterations but use all trees
            for inference. If you want to obtain result with dropouts, set this parameter
            to `True`.  Also, the parameter is set to true when obtaining prediction for
            custom objective function.

            .. versionadded:: 1.0.0

        iteration_range :
            Specifies which layer of trees are used in prediction.  For example, if a
            random forest is trained with 100 rounds.  Specifying `iteration_range=(10,
            20)`, then only the forests built during [10, 20) (half open set) rounds are
            used in this prediction.

            .. versionadded:: 1.4.0

        strict_shape :
            When set to True, output shape is invariant to whether classification is used.
            For both value and margin prediction, the output shape is (n_samples,
            n_groups), n_groups == 1 when multi-class is not used.  Default to False, in
            which case the output shape can be (n_samples, ) if multi-class is not used.
