LightGBM

LightGBM, short for Light Gradient Boosted Machine, is a free and open source distributed gradient boosting framework for machine learning developed by Microsoft.[2][3] It is based on decision tree algorithms and used for ranking, classification and other machine learning tasks. The development focus is on performance and scalability. The framework supports different algorithms including GBT, GBDT, GBRT, GBM, and MART.[4][5]
