It's worth recalling that the impurity is a common name for the metric to use when determining what split to make when growing a tree.  In that light, we are simply summing up how much splitting on each feature allowed us to reduce the impurity across all the splits in the tree.
In the context of gradient boosting, these trees are always regression trees (minimize squared error greedily) fit to the gradient of the loss function.

 Q:

Asp.Net Core 2 bound object is null

When I submit my form, ModelValidation.IsValid is true, but the object I have used [BindProperty] on is null.  
PageModel
I have the [BindProperty] tag on the public Group Group {get; private set} property.  
In the OnGetAsync(int? Id) method I look up the Group  with.FindAsync(Id) and populate the form.  That works fine :)
My understanding is that the OnPostAsync() should populate the Group object automatically as a result of the BindProperty annotation.  However, once I post the ModelState is Valid, but the Group object is null.  How do I fix this?

 It's worth recalling that the impurity is a coarse name for the system of measurement to use when determining what split to cause when growing a tree.   In that light, we are merely summing up how much splitting on each feature allow us to reduce the impurity across all the splits in the tree.
