Two heads are better than one: Ensemble methods for the win?

Technology

Description:

Ensemble methods have become a cornerstone of modern Machine Learning and Data Science, being the indispensable tool that researchers use hoping to catch that last bit of improvement in prediction accuracy. Especially in the current Big Data scenario, ensemble learning has a key role to play, as we will see in this session. Classifier ensembles are the most popular on the field, but other types of ensembles should not be disregarded, as ensembles for feature selection.
