متن کاملOutlier Detection by Boosting Regression Trees
A procedure for detecting outliers in regression problems is proposed. It is based on information provided by boosting regression trees. The key idea is to select the most frequently resampled observation along the boosting iterations and reiterate after removing it. The selection criterion is based on Tchebychev’s inequality applied to the maximum over the boosting iterations of ...
