In this paper we discuss boosting algorithms that maximize the soft margin of the produced linear combination of base hypotheses. LPBoost is the most straightforward boosting algor...

This paper introduces a strategy for training ensemble classifiers by analysing boosting within margin theory. We present a bound on the generalisation error of ensembled classifi...

We present a new generalization bound where the use of unlabeled examples results in a better ratio between training-set size and the resulting classifier’s quality and thus red...
Boosting is a popular approach for building accurate classifiers. Despite the initial popular belief, boosting algorithms do exhibit overfitting and are sensitive to label noise. ...
Boosting is a general method for improving the accuracy of learning algorithms. We use boosting to construct improved privacy-preserving synopses of an input database. These are da...
