Mastering Machine Learning for Penetration Testing

Improving classification with ensemble learning

In many cases, when you build a machine learning model, you receive low accuracy and low results. In order to get good results, we can use ensemble learning techniques. This can be done by combining many machine learning techniques into one predictive model.

We can categorize ensemble learning techniques into two categories:

• Parallel ensemble methods—The following graph illustrates how parallel ensemble learning works:

• Sequential ensemble methods—The following graph illustrates how sequential ensemble learning works:

The following are the three most used ensemble learning techniques:
