I will be occupied with my tests for a couple of days, will get back with the changes as soon as possible. In the Gaussian Process parallelization there was an error while using the multiprocessing backend, which couldn't be solved by simple changes in the code. Hence we had to drop the idea for t

Re: [scikit-learn] GSoC 2017 : "Parallel Decision Tree Building"

Hi Aman Thanks for the updates, it looks more complete now. I don't see what the benefit is of considering three different parallelism techniques. I'm not sure how you would do sample parallelism given that you need to sort all of the samples-- maybe a merge sort? That doesn't seem the most effic

Re: [scikit-learn] GSoC 2017 : "Parallel Decision Tree Building"

Hi Aman Likely the easiest way to parallelize decision tree building is to parallelize the finding of the best split at each node, as it checks every non-constant feature for the best split. Several other approaches focus on how to parallelize tree building in the streaming or distributed cases, w

Re: [scikit-learn] [GSoC 2017] First Draft, request for suggestions - Improve Online Learning of Linear Models.

The problem with callbacks is that for callbacks on each iteration to be feasible, they need to be cython functions.> Otherwise they will be too slow. You could do python callbacks, but they could not be called at every iteration, and so they wouldn't be suitable to implement something like adag
