··· 154 154 155 155 \paragraph{Random Forest} 156 156 157 - \cite{randomforest} 157 + \cite{randomforest} is a method that is based on classifications decision 158 + trees. In a decision tree a new instances is classified by going down a 159 + (binary) tree. Each non-leaf node contain a selection criteria to its 160 + branches. Every leaf node contains the class that will be assigned to the 161 + instance if the node is reached. In other training methods, decision trees 162 + have the tendency to overfit, but in random forest a multitude of decision 163 + tree is trained with a certain degree of randomness and the mean of these 164 + trees is used which avoids this problem. 158 165 159 166 \subsection{Neural Network Architectures} 160 167 \todo{Did we only do the three in the end?
