Tree-based models have become a popular choice for Machine Learning, not only due to their results, and the need for fewer transformations when working with data (due to robustness to input and scale invariance), but also because there is a way to take a peek inside of them to see...

The Random Forest algorithm is a tree-based supervised learning algorithm that uses an ensemble of predicitions of many decision trees, either to classify a data point or determine it's approximate value. This means it can either be used for classification or regression. When applied for classification, the class of the...
Sometimes confused with linear regression by novices - due to sharing the term regression - logistic regression is far different from linear regression. While linear regression predicts values such as 2, 2.45, 6.77 or continuous values, making it a regression algorithm, logistic regression predicts values such as 0...
K-Means clustering is one of the most widely used unsupervised machine learning algorithms that form clusters of data based on the similarity between data instances. In this guide, we will first take a look at a simple example to understand how the K-Means algorithm works before implementing it using Scikit-Learn....
In this guide, we will focus on implementing the Hierarchical Clustering Algorithm with Scikit-Learn to solve a marketing problem. After reading the guide, you will understand: When to apply Hierarchical Clustering How to visualize the dataset to understand if it is fit for clustering How to pre-process features and engineer...
The Portable Document Format (PDF) is not a WYSIWYG (What You See is What You Get) format. It was developed to be platform-agnostic, independent of the underlying operating system and rendering engines. To achieve this, PDF was constructed to be interacted with via something more like a programming language, and...

Matplotlib is one of the most widely used data visualization libraries in Python. Much of Matplotlib's popularity comes from its customization options - you can tweak just about any element from its hierarchy of objects. In this tutorial, we'll take a look at how to turn off a Matplotlib plot's...

There are many data visualization libraries in Python, yet Matplotlib is the most popular library out of all of them. Matplotlib’s popularity is due to its reliability and utility - it's able to create both simple and complex plots with little code. You can also customize the plots in...
