What Are Decision Trees And How Do They Work? (From Scratch)

From the creator

In this video, I try to explain what #DecisionTrees are and how they are used in #MachineLearning. We will learn the basics of decision trees with a real problem: Titanic and we will build our own decision tree. We will also learn how to use regression with decision trees. We will also look at terms like decision node, leaf, depth, gini, entropy, and squared loss. In the end, we will compare what we have built with a tree built using scikit-learn.

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
