Description:

xgboost: eXtreme Gradient Boosting

It is an efficient and scalable implementation of gradient boosting framework. including Gradient Boosted Tree (known as GBDT or GBRT). The package includes efficient linear model solver and tree learning algorithm. The package can automatically do parallel computation with OpenMP, and it can be more than 10 times faster than existing gradient boosting packages such as gbm or sklearn.GBM . It supports various objective functions, including regression, classification and ranking. The package is made to be extensible, so that user are also allowed to define there own objectives easily.

Changes to previous version:

New features in the lastest changes

• Distributed version that scale xgboost to even larger problems with cluster

• Feature importance visualization in R module

• Predict leaf index
