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...

Unifying the error-correcting and output-code AdaBoost within the margin framework
In this paper, we present a new interpretation of AdaBoost.ECC and AdaBoost.OC. We show that AdaBoost.ECC performs stage-wise functional gradient descent on a cost function, defin...

Collaborative learning by boosting in distributed environments
In this paper we propose a new distributed learning method called distributed network boosting (DNB) algorithm for distributed applications. The learned hypotheses are exchanged b...
