Fixed to work with future versions of visual studio i.e., 2015 MSVC has it's own section for setting compile parameters, it shouldn't need to fall into section below i.e., checking for c++11 as this is definitely already supported, though this isn't an issue for Visual Studio 2012, it breaks for later versions of visual studio i.e., 2015 when the default c++ is version 14. Though still backward compatible with c++11
eXtreme Gradient Boosting
Documentation | Resources | Installation | Release Notes | RoadMap
XGBoost is an optimized distributed gradient boosting library designed to be highly efficient, flexible and portable. It implements machine learning algorithms under the Gradient Boosting framework. XGBoost provides a parallel tree boosting(also known as GBDT, GBM) that solve many data science problems in a fast and accurate way. The same code runs on major distributed environment(Hadoop, SGE, MPI) and can solve problems beyond billions of examples.
