Day 6: Best Algorithm Selection

Hello to all, how was your day six of the challenge?? Comment down fast, first. With my #7daysofml day6.

I hope it was great. Here’s how mine went with selecting an algorithm.

Goal For The Day: Find My Algorithm

Selecting a model for machine learning was the sole goal for the day.

Learnings Of The Day

So, today I tested a lot of models to know which one would be the best fit for my purpose.

I started with the Linear Regression Model. It didn’t perform well. It was underfitting.

That’s why I thought let’s try a complex model as I learnt on day 2 that could be a possible solution.

Then, I went on to find a more complex model. I came across the decision tree model.

It turned out to be overfit when I tried to cross-check.

Next, I tried Random Forest and that seemed to be better than the two before.

So, decided that’s my algo/model.

Tomorrow I’ll be left with further testing and fine-tuning the model.

And that’s it for the day!!
