MSc in FE Course - 6. Machine Learning in Finance - M7: Hyperparameter Tuning and Model Optimization

1. Before deploying into Prod: ensure the model is devoid of bias and generalizes well on new unseen data.

2.  We can the train, validation, and test set by:

  • Random Split
  • Stratified Split

3. Random Split -

4. Stratified Split divide data into multiple subsets while ensuring that the proportions of classes or categories are preserved across those subsets.

5.
