XGBoost Documentation
|
|
=====================
|
|
This is document of xgboost library.
|
|
XGBoost is short for eXtreme gradient boosting. This is a library that is designed, and optimized for boosted (tree) algorithms.
|
|
The goal of this library is to push the extreme of the computation limits of machines to provide a ***scalable***, ***portable*** and ***accurate***
|
|
for large scale tree boosting.
