Adaptive Boosting with Leader based Learners for Classification of Large Handwritten Data
Boosting is a general method for improving the accuracy of a learning algorithm. AdaBoost, short form for Adaptive Boosting method, consists of repeated use of a weak or a base le...

Distribution-Specific Agnostic Boosting
We consider the problem of boosting the accuracy of weak learning algorithms in the agnostic learning framework of Haussler (1992) and Kearns et al. (1992). Known algorithms for t...

A Boosting Approach to Multiple Instance Learning
In this paper we present a boosting approach to multiple instance learning. As weak hypotheses we use balls (with respect to various metrics) centered at instances of positive bags...

Asymmetric boosting
A cost-sensitive extension of boosting, denoted as asymmetric boosting, is presented. Unlike previous proposals, the new algorithm is derived from sound decision-theoretic princip...
