Module 9: Boosting and additive trees

Note that on Friday 15.3. we will have a presentation in the second hour of the course (13:15-14:00) from the external company Bearing Point that offers data analysis. The idea is that you see where statistical learning can be used in practice. Light refreshments will be provided in the break at 13:00 before the talk.
