Random forests are an ensemble learning method that operates by constructing a multitude of decision trees at training time and outputting the mode of the classes as the .

The goal of predictive modelling is to create a that can make accurate predictions based on input data.

Support Vector Machines find the hyperplane that best separates the data into different .

In ensemble methods, multiple models are combined to improve the overall predictive .

Decision trees use a series of if-else statements to make .

In classification models, the output variable is a category or .

Logistic regression is used when the dependent variable is .

The predictive modelling process may involve to identify the most important variables for making predictions.
