##################### XGBoost Documentation ##################### **XGBoost** is an optimized distributed gradient boosting library designed to be highly **efficient**, **flexible** and **portable**. It implements machine learning algorithms under the `Gradient Boosting `_ framework. XGBoost provides a parallel tree boosting (also known as GBDT, GBM) that solve many data science problems in a fast and accurate way. The same code runs on major distributed environment (Hadoop, SGE, MPI) and can solve problems beyond billions of examples. ******** Contents ******** .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 :titlesonly: build get_started tutorials/index faq XGBoost User Forum GPU support parameter Python package R package JVM package Julia package CLI interface contribute
