Conditional Density Estimation with Class Probability Estimators
Many regression schemes deliver a point estimate only, but often it is useful or even essential to quantify the uncertainty inherent in a prediction. If a conditional density estimate is available, then prediction intervals can be derived from it. In this paper we compare three techniques for computing conditional density estimates using a class probability estimator, where this estimator is ap...
متن کاملBoosting Regression Estimators
There is interest in extending the boosting algorithm (Schapire, 1990) to fit a wide range of regression problems. The threshold-based boosting algorithm for regression used an analogy between classification errors and big errors in regression. We focus on the practical aspects of this algorithm and compare it to other attempts to extend boosting to regression. The practical capabilities of thi...
متن کاملBottleneck Conditional Density Estimators
We propose a neural network framework for highdimensional conditional density estimation. The Bottleneck Conditional Density Estimator (BCDE) is a variant of the conditional variational autoencoder (CVAE) that employs layer(s) of stochastic variables as the bottleneck between the input x and target y, where both are high-dimensional. The key to effectively train BCDEs is the hybrid blending of ...
متن کاملVisualizing Class Probability Estimators
Inducing classifiers that make accurate predictions on future data is a driving force for research in inductive learning. However, also of importance to the users is how to gain information from the models produced. Unfortunately, some of the most powerful inductive learning algorithms generate “black boxes”—that is, the representation of the model makes it virtually impossible to gain any insi...
