Tell Me …
--
Gini index, Information Gain, and Entropy are 3 commonly used measures in decision tree algorithms for feature selection. These measures are used to determine the best split of data into different subsets based on the values of a feature.
Gini index is a measure of impurity that is used in classification problems. It measures the probability of misclassifying a randomly chosen item in a dataset. A value of 0 indicates that all items in the dataset belong to the same class, while a value of 1 indicates that the items…
