| **Local Cascade Ensemble (LCE)** is a *high-performing*, *scalable* and *user-friendly* machine learning method for the general tasks of **Classification** and **Regression**.
| In particular, LCE:
 
- Enhances the prediction performance of Random Forest and XGBoost by combining their strengths and adopting a complementary diversification approach
- Supports parallel processing to ensure scalability
- Handles missing data by design
- Adopts scikit-learn API for the ease of use
- Adheres to scikit-learn conventions to allow interaction with scikit-learn pipelines and model selection tools
- Is released in open source and commercially usable - Apache 2.0 license

An article introducing LCE and illustrative code examples has been published in `Towards Data Science <https://towardsdatascience.com/random-forest-or-xgboost-it-is-time-to-explore-lce-2fed913eafb8?source=friends_link&sk=8cba14ad36f7662d07e842d03944a316>`_.
