A Visual Guide to Tuning Gradient Boosted Trees

Introduction My previous posts checked out the bog-standard decision tree and the wonder of a random forest. Now, to finish the triplet, I’ll visually explore ! There are a bunch of gradient boosted tree libraries, including...

Prototyping Gradient Descent in Machine Learning

Learning Supervised learning is a category of machine learning that uses labeled datasets to coach algorithms to predict outcomes and recognize patterns. Unlike unsupervised learning, supervised learning algorithms are given labeled training to learn the...

Dimitri Masin is the CEO and Co-Founding father of Gradient Labs, an AI startup constructing autonomous customer support agents specifically designed for regulated industries comparable to financial services. Prior to founding Gradient Labs in...

Gradient Boosting Regressor, Explained: A Visual Guide with Code Examples

ENSEMBLE LEARNINGFitting to errors one booster stage at a timeAfter all, in machine learning, we would like our predictions spot on. We began with easy decision trees — they worked okay. Then got here...

Fixing Faulty Gradient Accumulation: Understanding the Issue and Its Resolution

Years of suboptimal model training?When fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) locally, using large batch sizes is commonly impractical as a consequence of their substantial GPU memory consumption. To beat this limitation, a method called...

Non-Linearity: Can Linear Regression Compete With Gradient Boosting?

Some weeks ago, I published a post on LinkedIn.The post was based on the next figure, comparing the predictions made by two models: Linear Regression, and CatBoost.This began a discussion, and I discovered the...

Making a Gradient Descent Animation in Python

Find out how to plot the trajectory of some extent over a fancy surfaceI’ll walk you thru the steps of the method I followed.A little bit of backgroundJust a few days ago, I published...

The Necessity of a Gradient of Explainability in AI

An excessive amount of detail might be overwhelming, yet insufficient detail might be misleading.“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic” — Arthur C. ClarkeWith the advances in self-driving cars, computer vision, and more...
