Description:

This session will brief you about the significant Machine Learning topic and give great insights towards each of the techniques. Ensemble techniques are being leveraged predominantly during Hackathons as it is a powerful method to build the model.

Choosing the right ensembles is more of an art. You will understand the nuances about which ensemble learner to be used in different kinds of scenario as you solve more problems. Ensemble modeling can exponentially boost the performance of your model.

Here, we will cover various ensemble learning techniques and execute few problems to get to know, how these techniques are applied in machine learning algorithms.
