A first attempt at bagging

You've seen what happens in a single iteration of a bagging ensemble. Now let's build a custom bagging model!

Two functions have been prepared for you:

def build_decision_tree(X_train, y_train, random_state=None):
    # Takes a sample with replacement,
    # builds a "weak" decision tree,
    # and fits it to the train set

def predict_voting(classifiers, X_test):
    # Makes the individual predictions 
    # and then combines them using "Voting"

Technically, the build_decision_tree() function is what you did in the previous exercise. Here, you will build multiple such trees and then combine them. Let's see if this ensemble of "weak" models improves performance!

Instrucciones del ejercicio

  • Build the individual models by calling build_decision_tree(), passing the training set and the index i as the random state.
  • Predict the labels of the test set using predict_voting(), with the list of classifiers clf_list and the input test features.
