Setting the scoring method for hyperopt-sklearn

Is there a way to define the scoring method when using hyperopt-sklearn for classifiers ?

By default, it seems to be the model.score method of sklearn, so accuracy for classifiers. But for some problems (eg : imbalanced classes), accuracy is not the best metric…

HyperoptEstimator takes an optional loss function argument that defaults to accuracy, see here:
