Chapter 6: Model Building with DataRobot
In this chapter, we will see how DataRobot is used to build models. Much of the model-building process has been automated, and DataRobot offers many capabilities to explore a wide range of algorithms automatically, as well as allowing data scientists to fine-tune what they want to build. This results in significant time savings for data science teams and leads to the exploration of many more models than would otherwise be possible. It also leads to better adherence to best practices and hence fewer chances of making mistakes.
By the end of this chapter, you will have learned how to utilize DataRobot to build a wide range of models. In this chapter, we're going to cover the following main topics:
- Configuring a modeling project
- Building models and the model leaderboard
- Understanding model blueprints
- Building ensemble models
