CatBoost Part 1: Ordered Target Encoding
One of the defining features of CatBoost is its concerted effort to avoid data leakage at all costs. In this video, we'll see how it eliminates a potential threat in Target Encoding by ordering the data and encoding it sequentially. This ordered approach is central to everything CatBoost does and we'll see it again in Part 2 when we talk about how it builds trees. NOTE: This StatQuest is based on the original CatBoost manuscript... https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.09516 ...and an example provided in the CatBoost documentation... https://catboost.ai/en/docs/concepts/...
