In recent work Long and Servedio [LS05] presented a “martingale boosting” algorithm that works by constructing a branching program over weak classifiers and has a simple anal...
Abstract. To cope with the impossibility of solving agreement problems in asynchronous systems made up of n processes and prone to t process crashes, system designers tailor their ...
— This paper presents an analytical model of steady state throughput of the Slow-but-Steady variant of TCP NewReno as a function of loss event rate, average number of segments lo...
Scaling discrete AdaBoost to handle real-valued weak hypotheses has often been done under the auspices of convex optimization, but little is generally known from the original boost...
