Generating the rules from XGBoost

[Omprakash_Jena]

Hello!

Is there any way to generate the rules from a XGBoost node in KNIME like the “Decision Tree to Ruleset” node for DT.

Any help would be appreciated.

Many Thanks!

Hello @Omprakash_Jena,

as of now, that isn’t possible with the XGBoost nodes.
Also, note that XGBoost actually trains lots of trees using a specialized gradient boosting algorithm, so interpreting the resulting set of rulesets would be difficult.

Kind regards,

Thanks @nemad for the confirmation.
