Hyperparameter

Description

Range

Optimal value

Maximum depth

Defines the maximum depth a tree can achieve.

None, no. of samples

None

Minimum samples leaf

States the minimum number of samples necessary to form a leaf node.

From 1 to the total number of samples.

2

Minimum samples split

Determines the minimum number of samples required to perform a split on an internal node.

From 02 to total number of samples.

2

No. of estimators (number of trees)

Refers to the total count of tress within the ensemble

From 01 and extend to any desired upper limit.
