Stratification, Groups and Time

49 min
Block 7 — Train, validation and test
Objective
state the rule that subordinates the splitting protocol to the dependence structure of the data; define stratification rigorously and measure the variance reduction it actually buys; recognize a group dependence and put a number on the inflation that a group leak produces; establish the chronological evaluation protocol, the purge and the embargo; and select the scikit-learn splitter that matches each structure, including the cases where several constraints apply at once.
