    Parameters
    ----------
    datafile : string
        Path of dataset file.
    estimator : function
        kernel function used to estimate. This function needs to return a gram matrix.
    param_grid_precomputed : dictionary
        Dictionary with names (string) of parameters used to calculate gram matrices as keys and lists of parameter settings to try as values. This enables searching over any sequence of parameter settings. Params with length 1 will be omitted.
    param_grid : dictionary
        Dictionary with names (string) of parameters used as penelties as keys and lists of parameter settings to try as values. This enables searching over any sequence of parameter settings. Params with length 1 will be omitted.
    model_type : string
        Typr of the problem, can be regression or classification.
    NUM_TRIALS : integer
        Number of random trials of outer cv loop. The default is 30.
    datafile_y : string
        Path of file storing y data. This parameter is optional depending on the given dataset file.
    read_gm_from_file : boolean
        Whether gram matrices are loaded from file.
