CASHomon Sets: Efficient Rashomon Sets Across Multiple Model Classes and their Hyperparameters

Fiona Katharina Ewald, Martin Binder, Matthias Feurer +2

Rashomon sets are model sets within one model class that perform nearly as well as a reference model from the same model class. They reveal the existence of alternative well-perfor…
