Dataset

Machine Learning Series

We are doing a series of Data Dojos on machine learning. The task is to classify tree species by their traits (e.g. height, stem diameter, geographic location).

We use a subset of the recently published database:
Tallo

The full dataset contains measurements for almost 500k individual trees from more than 5k species.

In the first dojo of the series, we filtered the full set to 3 species with reasonable overlap (Fagus sylvatica, Pinus pinaster, Quercus ilex). Now we want to try different Machine Learning methods to classify tree species from traits.

In the second dojo we created our first models.
A very simple "Majority Vote" model and some K-Nearest-Neighbor (KNN) models with scikit-learn.

In the third dojo we explored the effect of scaling on the performance of the KNN models.

In the fourth dojo we explored Decision Trees as models for classification

In the fifth dojo we used Support Vector Machines as models for classification

In the sixth dojo we used ensemble models, including Ada boosting and random forests.

Session 7 - Missingness or Hyperparameters?

Question Pool:

  • Generic
    • What is supervised machine learning?
    • How to evaluate the performance of our model(s)?
    • What kinds of (classical) models exist?
  • Specific
    • After using KNN, Decision Trees, SVMs, AdaBoosting, RandomForests what other models are available
    • Try some new models and hyper parameter combinations
    • Find the "best" hyperparameters with cross-validation
    • How to deal with the missing data?
    • Add your own questions
  • Further Ideas
    • TBD
    • Add your own ideas

Collaborative Tools and Workflow

For Notebooks (R, python, julia, js, ) with real time collaboration CoCalc seems to be the best option right now. It worked great the last couple of times so we'll stick to it for now. You need to register an account there (it is free).
