- 4.Dynamic Ensemble Selection (DES) for Classification in Python - Dynamic Ensemble Selection algorithms operate much like DCS algorithms, except predictions are made using votes from multiple classifier models instead of a single best model. In effect, each region of the input feature space is owned by a subset of models that perform best in that region.

- 6.Strong Learners vs. Weak Learners in Ensemble Learning - Weak learners are models that perform slightly better than random guessing. Strong learners are models that have arbitrarily good accuracy. Weak and strong learners are tools from computational learning theory and provide the basis for the development of the boosting class of ensemble methods.

- bagging (random sample selection, multi classifier training), random forest (random feature selection for each tree, multi tree training), boosting(creating stumps, each new stump tries to fix the previous error, at last combining results using new data, each model is assigned a skill weight and accounted for in the end), voting(majority vote, any set of algorithms within weka, results combined via mean or some other way), stacking(same as voting but combining predictions using a meta model is used).
Bagging - best example so far, create m bags, put n’<n samples (60% of n) in each bag - with replacement which means that the same sample can be selected twice or more, query from the test (x) each of the m models, calculate mean, this is the classification.
Overfitting - not an issue with bagging, as the mean of the models actually averages or smoothes the “curves”. Even if all of them are overfitted.
Mastery on using all the boosting algorithms: Gradient Boosting with Scikit-Learn, XGBoost, LightGBM, and CatBoost
Adaboost: similar to bagging, create a system that chooses from samples that were modelled poorly before.
- 1.create bag_1 with n’ features <n with replacement, create the model_1, test on ALL train.
- 2.Create bag_2 with n’ features with replacement, but add a bias for selecting from the samples that were wrongly classified by the model_1. Create a model_2. Average results from model_1 and model_2. I.e., who was classified correctly or not.
- 3.Create bag_3 with n’ features with replacement, but add a bias for selecting from the samples that were wrongly classified by the model_1+2. Create a model_3. Average results from model_1, 2 & 3 I.e., who was classified correctly or not. Iterate onward.
- 4.Create bag_m with n’ features with replacement, but add a bias for selecting from the samples that were wrongly classified by the previous steps.
- What is XGBOOST? XGBoost is an optimized distributed gradient boosting system designed to be highly efficient, flexible and portable #2nd link
- Threads
- Rounds
- Tree height
- Loss function
- Error
- Cross fold.
- Beautiful Video Class about XGBOOST - mostly practical in jupyter but with some insight about the theory.
- Here is an example configuration for multi-class classification:
- weka.classifiers.mlr.MLRClassifier -learner “nrounds = 10, max_depth = 2, eta = 0.5, nthread = 2”
- classif.xgboost -params "nrounds = 1000, max_depth = 4, eta = 0.05, nthread = 5, objective = \"multi:softprob\"
Copy: nrounds = 10, max_depth = 2, eta = 0.5, nthread = 2
#Random Forest™ - 1000 trees
bst <- xgboost(data = train$data, label = train$label, max_depth = 4, num_parallel_tree = 1000, subsample = 0.5, colsample_bytree =0.5, nrounds = 1, objective = "binary:logistic")
#Boosting - 3 rounds
bst <- xgboost(data = train$data, label = train$label, max_depth = 4, nrounds = 3, objective = "binary:logistic")
RF1000: - max_depth = 4, num_parallel_tree = 1000, subsample = 0.5, colsample_bytree =0.5, nrounds = 1, nthread = 2
XG: nrounds = 10, max_depth = 4, eta = 0.5, nthread = 2
