Parameter estimation using grid search with a nested cross-validation
=======================================================================

The classifier is optimized by "nested" cross-validation using the
GridSearchCV object.

The performance of the selected parameters is evaluated using
cross-validation (different than the nested cross-validation that is used
to select the best classifier).
