Gradient Boosting builds trees one at a time, with each tree correcting the mistakes of the previous ensemble. It often achieves higher accuracy than Random Forest but requires more careful tuning.

Configuration

ParameterDescriptionDefault
N EstimatorsNumber of boosting stages (trees).100
Learning RateShrinks the contribution of each tree. Lower = more conservative, needs more trees.0.1
Max DepthMaximum depth of individual trees.3
SubsampleFraction of training samples used per tree. Values below 1.0 add randomness (stochastic gradient boosting).1.0
Random StateSeed for reproducibility.42

When to use

Strong choice when accuracy is the primary goal. Slower to train than Random Forest. Does not require scaling.
