The State of Boosting ∗
نویسنده
چکیده
In many problem domains, combining the predictions of several models often results in a model with improved predictive performance. Boosting is one such method that has shown great promise. On the applied side, empirical studies have shown that combining models using boosting methods produces more accurate classification and regression models. These methods are extendible to the exponential family as well as proportional hazards regression models. This article shows that boosting, which is still new to statistics, is widely applicable. I will introduce boosting, discuss the current state of boosting, and show how these methods connect to more standard statistical practice.

Outlier 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 ...

متن کاملEfficacy of Symmetrical and Asymmetrical Pushed Negotiations in Boosting Speaking
This study was set out to shed light on the efficacy of pushed output directed by scaffolding on 41 (24 female and 17 male) upper-intermediate EFL learners’ speaking fluency and accuracy. A public version of IELTS speaking test was held to measure learners’ entrance behavior. Then, they were randomly assigned into symmetrical, asymmetrical, and control group. The experimental and control groups...
متن کاملA Hybrid Framework for Building an Efficient Incremental Intrusion Detection System
In this paper, a boosting-based incremental hybrid intrusion detection system is introduced. This system combines incremental misuse detection and incremental anomaly detection. We use boosting ensemble of weak classifiers to implement misuse intrusion detection system. It can identify new classes types of intrusions that do not exist in the training dataset for incremental misuse detection. As...
