Gradient Boosted Decision Trees (GBDT), exemplified by LightGBM, spend a dominant fraction of training time -- typically 65-70% -- constructing per-feature histograms. Existing approaches such as random feature subsampling (feature_fraction) discard features without regard for their predictive utility.

Double descent is commonly studied by scaling an explicit capacity parameter, such as neural-network width. For gradient boosting decision trees (GBDTs), however, an analogous single-axis capacity parameter has not been established.
