================================================================
Using KBinsDiscretizer to discretize continuous features
================================================================

The example compares prediction result of linear regression (linear model)
and decision tree (tree based model) with and without discretization of
real-valued features.

As is shown in the result before discretization, linear model is fast to
build and relatively straightforward to interpret, but can only model
linear relationships, while decision tree can build a much more complex model
of the data. One way to make linear model more powerful on continuous data
is to use discretization (also known as binning). In the example, we
discretize the feature and one-hot encode the transformed data. Note that if
the bins are not reasonably wide, there would appear to be a substantially
increased risk of overfitting, so the discretizer parameters should usually
be tuned under cross validation.

After discretization, linear regression and decision tree make exactly the
same prediction. As features are constant within each bin, any model must
predict the same value for all points within a bin. Compared with the result
before discretization, linear model become much more flexible while decision
tree gets much less flexible. Note that binning features generally has no
beneficial effect for tree-based models, as these models can learn to split
up the data anywhere.
