Rapid Mixing of Several Markov Chains for a Hard-Core Model
The mixing properties of several Markov chains to sample from configurations of a hard-core model have been examined. The model is familiar in the statistical physics of the liqui...

Generalized Boosting Algorithms for Convex Optimization
Boosting is a popular way to derive powerful learners from simpler hypothesis classes. Following previous work (Mason et al., 1999; Friedman, 2000) on general boosting frameworks,...
