Round 1 - One-on-one 

(1 Question)

  • Q1. How regularisation works in random forest
  • Ans. 

    Regularisation in random forest helps prevent overfitting by controlling the complexity of the model.

    • Regularisation in random forest is achieved by limiting the depth of the trees in the forest.

    • It helps prevent overfitting by reducing the complexity of the model and improving generalization.

    • Regularisation parameters like max_depth, min_samples_split, and min_samples_leaf can be tuned to control the complexity of the mo
