- compare SVC incl. RBF vs. Random Kitchen Sinks (RBFSampler) + linear SVC (https://scikit-learn.org/stable/auto_examples/plot_kernel_approximation.html#sphx-glr-auto-examples-plot-kernel-approximation-py)
Topics to include:
- interoperability of results (in terms features importance, e.g. SVN w/ hig deg poly
kernel)
- some rules of thumbs: don't use KNN classifiers for 10 or more dimensions (why? paper
link)
- show decision surfaces for diff classifiers (extend exercise in sec 3 using
hyperparams)
### Coding session
#### Part 6b
- apply SVM, Random Forests, Gradient boosting to previous examples
- apply clustering to previous examples
- MNIST example
Time: 1h (4/3 uh)
- Decision trees
- Averaging: Random forests
- Boosting AdaBoost and mention Gradient Tree Boosting (hist; xgboost)
- mentions
- text classification: Naive Bayes for text classification
