Practising Supervised Learning:
Gradient Boosting Machines

Prof. Dr. Mirco Schoenfeld

It’s your turn

  1. Download the task sheet
  2. Open the task sheet in RStudio
  3. Fill the gaps to train a gradient boosting model
    If you want to read what a function (e.g. train) does use ? to access its documentation (i.e. ?train)
  4. Dig deep! Look into outputs of the functions to really understand what is going on.
