Assignment Question Random Forest

Random Forests is an ensemble learning method that combines multiple decision trees to improve predictive accuracy and control overfitting. Each tree contributes to the final prediction, allowing the model to mitigate the weaknesses of individual trees. This method is widely used in applications like finance and healthcare due to its robustness and ability to handle large datasets, though it can be computationally intensive and less interpretable than simpler models.
