Q1. How do you define model Gini?
Ans. 
Model Gini is a measure of statistical dispersion used to evaluate the performance of classification models.
• Model Gini is calculated as twice the area between the ROC curve and the diagonal line (random model).

• It ranges from 0 (worst model) to 1 (best model), with higher values indicating better model performance.

• A Gini coefficient of 0.5 indicates a model that is no better than random guessing.

• Commonly used in credit

Q2. How to you train XG boost model
Ans. 
XGBoost model is trained by specifying parameters, splitting data into training and validation sets, fitting the model, and tuning hyperparameters.
• Specify parameters for XGBoost model such as learning rate, max depth, and number of trees

• Split data into training and validation sets using train_test_split function

• Fit the XGBoost model on training data using fit method

• Tune hyperparameters using techniques like grid search

Q1. What is cross validation ?
Ans. 
Cross validation is a technique used to assess the performance of a predictive model by splitting the data into training and testing sets multiple times.
• Cross validation helps to evaluate how well a model generalizes to new data.

• It involves splitting the data into k subsets, training the model on k-1 subsets, and testing it on the remaining subset.

• Common types of cross validation include k-fold cross validation and lea...read more
