Thoughts on comining model

[Zhuo Lin Lin]

Hi everyone,

I am new to python and machine learning. I am currently working on a set of data that helps to determine the response of a customer (i.e. will the customer insure with us, or not). 

I understand that the performance may sometimes be enhanced by combining different types of mode', and hence would like to seek if anyone has any resource that I could read on to decide if it would be a good approach to combine linear regression with random forest to reduce my model variance. 

Would really appreciate if you could provide some advices!

(* Would also be great if you could share resources on whether AUC would be a good performance measure!)

Best regards,

LinLin

Hi there,

I am not sure if it will work well in practice, but in case you want to give it a try, you can use the ensemble classifier's example 6 as a rough template for implementing it.

Best,
SR
