Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Ensemble methods are meta-algorithms that combine several machine learning techniques into one predictive model
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -1. Which of the following is/are true about ensemble methods? Ensemble methods can take the form of using different algorithms, using the same algorithm with different settings, or assigning different parts of the dataset to different classifiers.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stacking, also known as stacked generalization, is an ensemble method where the models are combined using another machine learning algorithm. The basic idea is to train machine learning algorithms with training dataset and then generate a new dataset with these models.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ensemble methods are techniques that aim at improving the accuracy of results in models by combining multiple models instead of using a single model. The combined models increase the accuracy of the results significantly. This has boosted the popularity of ensemble methods in machine learning.

Detailed explanation-4: -What is true about an ensembled classifier? In an ensemble model, we give higher weights to classifiers which have higher accuracies. In other words, these classifiers are voting with higher conviction. On the other hand, weak learners are sure about specific areas of the problem.
