Challenge: Evaluating the Model with Cross-Validation

In this challenge, you will build and evaluate a model using both train-test evaluation and cross-validation. The data is an already preprocessed penguins dataset.

Here are some of the functions you will use:

Task
test

Swipe to show code editor

Your task is to create a 4-nearest neighbors classifier and first evaluate its performance using the cross-validation score. Then split the data into train-test sets, train the model on the training set, and evaluate its performance on the test set.

  1. Initialize a KNeighborsClassifier with 4 neighbors.
  2. Calculate the cross-validation scores of this model with the number of folds set to 3. You can pass an untrained model to a cross_val_score() function.
  3. Use a suitable function to split X, y.
  4. Train the model using the training set.
  5. Evaluate the model using the test set.
