If we have a regression problem, we have the base models as learners. Since the diagnostics are performed on the training dataset only, we will drop the convention of train and valid partitions. For simplicity, during the rest of the discussion, we will assume that we have N observations. The L number of models implies that we have L predictions for each of the N observations, and thus the number of predictions is Ensemble diversity. It is in these predictions that we try to find the diversity of the ensemble. The diversity ...
