Lightgbm vs Extra Trees
Extra Trees (Extremely Randomized Trees) the ensemble learning algorithms. It constructs the set of decision trees. During tree construction the decision rule is randomly selected. This algorithm is very similar to Random Forest except random selection of split values.

« Back to Machine Learning Algorithms Comparison
Algorithms were compared on OpenML datasets.
There were 19 datasets with binary-classification, 7 datasets with multi-class classification, and 16 datasets
with regression tasks.
Algorithms were trained with AutoML mljar-supervised.
They were trained with advanced feature engineering switched off, without ensembling.
All models were trained with the 5-fold cross validation with shuffle and stratification (for classification
tasks).
Different hyperparameters for each algorithm were checked during the training.
For binary classification the Area Under ROC Curve (AUC) metric was used.
For multi-class classification the LogLoss metric was used.
The regression task was optimized with Root Mean Square Error (RMSE).
Algorithms were scored on each dataset and compared. The better performing algorithm have 1 point for each dataset. The more points assigned for the algorithm the better.
