Week 8

Week 8

The plan for this week was to develop a decision tree to handle both continuous and categorical data for gradient boosting and integrate regression and classification tree.

Day 1:

•  Addressed feedbacks from my mentor on commits for Regression and Decision Trees

Day 2:

• Developed the stub methods and creating generic modules for future implementations of mixed decision tree regression.

Day 3:

• Combining Splitting techniques for regression and classifications

Day 4: 

• Implement mixed trees
• Plugin mixed trees to gradient boosting
• Test for Gradient Boosting using mixed trees for classification and regressions

Day 5:

• Field Type generator to easily use default field types
• Community Service to Food bank for 3/4th of the day.
