Data Science and Machine Learning for Beginners in R – XGBoost with Grid Search using Mushroom Dataset

  XGBoost is a popular and powerful implementation of the Gradient Boosting algorithm. It is an efficient and scalable implementation of gradient boosting framework. XGBoost stands for “Extreme Gradient Boosting” and is known for its high predictive power and performance on large datasets. In this article, we will be discussing how to use XGBoost with …

Data Science and Machine Learning for Beginners in R – Boosting Ensembles with Grid Search using Mushroom Dataset

  Boosting is another ensemble learning method that is used to improve the performance of machine learning models. Like bagging, boosting combines the predictions of multiple models, but it does so in a different way. Instead of generating multiple subsets of the data and training a model on each subset, boosting trains a model on …

Data Science and Machine Learning for Beginners in R – Random Forest with Grid Search using Mushroom Dataset

  Random Forest is a type of ensemble learning algorithm that can be used for both classification and regression tasks. It works by building multiple decision trees and combining their predictions to make a final prediction. One of the advantages of Random Forest is that it can help to reduce overfitting, which is a common …
