How to visualize decision tree
20+ min · · Decision trees are the fundamental building block of gradient boosting machines and Random Forests(tm), probably the two most popular machine learning models for structured data. Visualizing decision trees is a tremendous aid when learning how these models work and when interpreting models. Unfortunately, current visualization packages are rudimentary and not immediately helpful to the novice. For example, we couldn't find a library that visualizes how decision nodes split up the feature space. · Shared by 359, including Michael Duergner, Dominik Grolimund, Nico Müller 🇺🇦, Esther Schindler, Cameron Yick ~ @hydrosquall@vis.social on mastodon, Katja Evertz, Jonathan Kogan, Nando 💪🇦🇺🇦🇷, Florian Hanke 🍎, Daniel Buchmueller, David Nagel, TDMx, Philipp Laurim, Thomas Telandro, Tom Connor, Jacob du Toit, hiten.eth, Mark Kaigwa
