Boosting for predicted revenue
The initial model got an RMSE of around 7.34. Let's see if we can improve this using an iteration of boosting.
You'll build another linear regression, but this time the target values are the errors from the base model, calculated as follows:
y_train_error = pred_train - y_train
y_test_error = pred_test - y_test
For this model you'll use 'popularity' feature instead, hoping that it can provide more informative patterns than with the 'budget' feature alone. This is available to you as X_train_pop and X_test_pop. As in the previous exercise, the input features have been standardized for you.

Ensemble Methods in Python
Instructions
- Fit a linear regression model to the previous errors using
X_train_popandy_train_error. - Calculate the predicted errors on the test set,
X_test_pop. - Calculate the RMSE, like in the previous exercise, using
y_test_errorandpred_error.
