An effective guide to using ensemble techniques to enhance machine learning models
Key Features
Learn how to maximize popular machine learning algorithms such as random forests, decision trees, AdaBoost, K-nearest neighbor, and more
Get a practical approach to building efficient machine learning models using ensemble techniques with real-world use cases
Implement concepts such as boosting, bagging, and stacking ensemble methods to improve your model prediction accuracy
Book Description
Ensembling is a technique of combining two or more similar or dissimilar machine learning algorithms to create a model that delivers superior prediction power. This book will show you how you can use many weak algorithms to make a strong predictive model. This book contains Python code for different machine learning algorithms so that you can easily understand and implement it in your own systems.
This book covers different machine learning algorithms that are widely used in the practical world to make predictions and classifications. It addresses different aspects of a prediction framework, such as data pre-processing, model training, validation of the model, and more. You will gain knowledge of different machine learning aspects such as bagging (decision trees and random forests), Boosting (Ada-boost) and stacking (a combination of bagging and boosting algorithms).
Then you'll learn how to implement them by building ensemble models using TensorFlow and Python libraries such as scikit-learn and NumPy. As machine learning touches almost every field of the digital world, you'll see how these algorithms can be used in different applications such as computer vision, speech recognition, making recommendations, grouping and document classification, fitting regression on data, and more.
By the end of this book, you'll understand how to combine machine learning algorithms to work behind the scenes and reduce challenges and common problems.
