Model selection

A video discussing model selection, via tuning of hyperparameters.

What do we mean by model selection?

Once you’ve picked which family of models to use, you may still need to select hyperparameters to define a specific model within that family of models. These are the settings you need to choose before running the algorithm.

The video discusses this idea in more depth using the K-nearest neighbour algorithm as an example.
