Transfer Learning using Kolmogorov Complexity: Basic Theory and Empirical Evaluations
In transfer learning we aim to solve new problems using fewer examples using information gained from solving related problems. Transfer learning has been successful in practice, a...

Combining Bias and Variance Reduction Techniques for Regression Trees
Gradient Boosting and bagging applied to regressors can reduce the error due to bias and variance respectively. Alternatively, Stochastic Gradient Boosting (SGB) and Iterated Baggi...

Managing Domain Knowledge and Multiple Models with Boosting
We present MBoost, a novel extension to AdaBoost that extends boosting to use multiple weak learners explicitly, and provides robustness to learning models that overfit or are po...
