چکیده

Bagging and boosting are two general techniques for building predictors based on small samples from a dataset. We show that boosting can be parallelized, and then present performance results for parallelized bagging and boosting using OC1 decision trees and two standard datasets. The main results are that sample sizes limit achievable accuracy, regardless of computational time spent; that parallel boosting is more accurate than parallel bagging; and (unexpectedly) that parallel boosting is also cheaper than parallel bagging (at least over OC1).

Improving reservoir rock classification in heterogeneous carbonates using boosting and bagging strategies: A case study of early Triassic carbonates of coastal Fars, south Iran

An accurate reservoir characterization is a crucial task for the development of quantitative geological models and reservoir simulation. In the present research work, a novel view is presented on the reservoir characterization using the advantages of thin section image analysis and intelligent classification algorithms. The proposed methodology comprises three main steps. First, four classes of...

The Role of Combining Rules in Bagging and Boosting

To improve weak classifiers bagging and boosting could be used. These techniques are based on combining classifiers. Usually, a simple majority vote or a weighted majority vote are used as combining rules in bagging and boosting. However, other combining rules such as mean, product and average are possible. In this paper, we study bagging and boosting in Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and t...

Combining Bagging and Additive Regression

Bagging and boosting are among the most popular resampling ensemble methods that generate and combine a diversity of regression models using the same learning algorithm as base-learner. Boosting algorithms are considered stronger than bagging on noisefree data. However, there are strong empirical indications that bagging is much more robust than boosting in noisy settings. For this reason, in t...

Multiple Boosting: a Combination of Boosting and Bagging

Classiier committee learning approaches have demonstrated great success in increasing the prediction accuracy of classiier learning , which is a key technique for datamining. These approaches generate several classiiers to form a committee by repeated application of a single base learning algorithm. The committee members vote to decide the nal classiication. It has been shown that Boosting and ...
