Summary
- Machine learning algorithms have hyperparameters that allow the algorithms to be tailored to specific datasets.
- Running the example evaluates the model and reports the mean and standard deviation of the classification accuracy.
- Sensible values are between 1 tree and hundreds or thousands of trees.
- 1 2 3 ... # starting point for the search solution=step([0.1,100,1.0,7]) Tying this together, the complete example of manually tuning the hyperparameters of the XGBoost algorithm using a stochastic hill climbing algorithm is listed below.
