Totally corrective boosting algorithms that maximize the margin
We consider boosting algorithms that maintain a distribution over a set of examples. At each iteration a weak hypothesis is received and the distribution is updated. We motivate t...

Unifying multi-class AdaBoost algorithms with binary base learners under the margin framework
Multi-class AdaBoost algorithms AdaBooost.MO, -ECC and -OC have received a great attention in the literature, but their relationships have not been fully examined to date. In this...

Margin-Based Ranking Meets Boosting in the Middle
Abstract. We present several results related to ranking. We give a general margin-based bound for ranking based on the L∞ covering number of the hypothesis space. Our bound sugge...

Leveraging the margin more carefully
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. ...

PAC Analogues of Perceptron and Winnow via Boosting the Margin
We describe a novel family of PAC model algorithms for learning linear threshold functions. The new algorithms work by boosting a simple weak learner and exhibit complexity bounds...
