Description
We continue tackling the problem of trying to know the likelihood ratio with the use of Classical Machine Learning. We try to solve it by brute force and then we move to Machine Learning techniques. We start with a Kernel Density Estimators. We continue by defining what is a decision tree, what is a leaf and we study how it works on a very simple example. We go further and explain the difference between classification and regression, as well as the need for pruning, bagging, and boosting. This main goal of this lecture is to remove the idea of the “black-box approach" and understand all of the details of a decision tree.
