Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You are given a highly complex Decision Tree that is performing poorly on validation data. Outline a comprehensive strategy using both pre-pruning and post-pruning methods to improve this model.
💡 Hint: Consider both aspects: limitations during growth and adjustments afterward.
Design a scenario where pre-pruning could lead to underfitting and suggest how to detect and avoid this problem during model building.
💡 Hint: Reflect on parameter settings and training results.
