General Purpose Gradient Boosting Library
|
||||
|
||||
Goal: A stand-alone efficient library to do learning via boosting in functional space
|
||||
|
||||
Features:
|
||||
* Sparse feature format, handling of missing features. This allows efficient categorical feature encoding as indicators. The speed of booster only depends on number of existing features.

=======
|
||||
* Sparse feature format:
|
||||
- Sparse feature format allows easy handling of missing values, and improve computation efficiency.
|
||||
* Push the limit on single machine:
|
||||
- Efficient implementation that optimizes memory and computation.
|
||||
* Layout of gradient boosting algorithm to support generic tasks, see project wiki.
