This is the second (and last) part of the series dealing with the formal comparison of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms from a statistical point of view. In this post, we examine how statistical tests are applied to performance data of ML algorithms.
In industry, when a practitioner (often a Data Scientist) uses a machine learning algorithm to build a predictive model to solve a real-world problem, they are interested in the performance when the model is deployed into a production environment…
This is the second chapter of a three-part series on Evolutionary Feature Selection with Big datasets. We will start where we left off, namely with a review of existing metaheuristics with special focus on Genetic Algorithms.
