T

Target
See Target variable

Target variable
The output being predicted

Test sample
A sample of data used to perform the final test of the model

Training
Training a neural network involves iteratively adjusting the weights and biases using a training dataset. The goal is to minimize the error or loss function and improve the network’s prediction accuracy.

Training sample
A sample of data used to train the model

Tree depth and number of trees
These are hyperparameters that control the complexity and size of the individual decision trees. The tree depth affects the model’s capacity to capture complex relationships in the data, while the number of trees determines the boosting iterations and overall model complexity.

True Negative (TN)
TN is the prediction that correctly indicates the absence of the event.

True Positive (TP)
TP is the prediction that correctly indicates the presence of the event.
