The decision tree is one of the earliest predictive models in machine learning. In the soft decision tree, based on the hierarchical mixture of experts model, internal binary nodes take soft decisions and choose both children with probabilities given by a sigmoid gating function. Hence for an input, all the paths to all the leaves are traversed and all those leaves contribute to the final decis...

Bagging is a well-known and widely used ensemble method. It operates by sequentially bootstrapping the data set and invoking a base classifier on these different bootstraps. By learning several models (and combining them), it tends to increase predictive accuracy, while sacrificing efficiency. Due to this it becomes slow for large scale data sets. In this paper we propose a method that simulate...

This paper work is focused on the comparison of different data mining techniques and their performances by building predictive models of forest stand properties from satellite images. We used the WEKA data mining environment to implement our numeric prediction experiments, applying linear regression, model (regression) trees, and bagging. The best results (with regard to correlation) we obtaine...

Storage device performance prediction is a key element of self-managed storage systems and application planning tasks, such as data assignment and configuration. Based on bagging ensemble, we proposed an algorithm named selective bagging classification and regression tree (SBCART) to model storage device performance. In addition, we consider the caching effect as a feature in workload character...

In this paper, we present two ensemble learning algorithms which make use of boostrapping and out-of-bag estimation in an attempt to inherit the robustness of bagging to overfitting. As against bagging, with these algorithms learners have visibility on the other learners and cooperate to get diversity, a characteristic that has proved to be an issue of major concern to ensemble models. Experime...

Classifier ensembles is an active area of research within the machine learning community. One of the most successful techniques is bagging, where an algorithm (typically a decision tree inducer) is applied over several different training sets, obtained applying sampling with replacement to the original database. In this paper we define a framework where sampling with and without replacement can...

Bagging is an ensemble learning method that has proved to be a useful tool in the arsenal of machine learning practitioners. Commonly applied in conjunction with decision tree learners to build an ensemble of decision trees, it often leads to reduced errors in the predictions when compared to using a single tree. A single tree is built from a training set of size N . Bagging is based on the ide...

Even the support vector machine (SVM) has been proposed to provide a good generalization performance, the classi6cation result of the practically implemented SVM is often far from the theoretically expected level because their implementations are based on the approximated algorithms due to the high complexity of time and space. To improve the limited classi6cation performance of the real SVM, w...

We present attribute bagging (AB), a technique for improving the accuracy and stability of classi#er ensembles induced using random subsets of features. AB is a wrapper method that can be used with any learning algorithm. It establishes an appropriate attribute subset size and then randomly selects subsets of features, creating projections of the training set on which the ensemble classi#ers ar...
