Abstract:
|
In this talk, I will explore the use of large numbers of simple models to aid the understanding of large, complex data sets. Models ensembles are commonly used to enhance predictive ability, but can they also enhance our understanding of the underlying data? I will illustrate these ideas with R and Ggobi.
