A low variance error boosting algorithm
Abstract. This paper introduces a robust variant of AdaBoost, cwAdaBoost, that uses weight perturbation to reduce variance error, and is particularly effective when dealing with da...

MultiBoosting: A Technique for Combining Boosting and Wagging
MultiBoosting is an extension to the highly successful AdaBoost technique for forming decision committees. MultiBoosting can be viewed as combining AdaBoost with wagging. It is abl...

A Randomized Online Learning Algorithm for Better Variance Control
We propose a sequential randomized algorithm, which at each step concentrates on functions having both low risk and low variance with respect to the previous step prediction functi...

Gabor Feature Selection for Face Recognition Using Improved AdaBoost Learning
Though AdaBoost has been widely used for feature selection and classifier learning, many of the selected features, or weak classifiers, are redundant. By incorporating mutual infor...
