This paper introduces a Bayesian algorithm for constructing predictive models from data that are optimized to predict a target variable well for a particular instance. This algori...
Breiman's bagging and Freund and Schapire's boosting are recent methods for improving the predictive power of classi er learning systems. Both form a set of classi ers t...
This work presents decision trees adequate for the classification of series data. There are several methods for this task, but most of them focus on accuracy. One of the requirem...
The applicationofboosting procedures to decision tree algorithmshas been shown to produce very accurate classi ers. These classiers are in the form of a majority vote over a numbe...
Abstract. We describe several improvements to Freund and Schapire's AdaBoost boosting algorithm, particularly in a setting in which hypotheses may assign confidences to each o...
