How boosting the margin can also boost classifier complexity
Boosting methods are known not to usually overfit training data even as the size of the generated classifiers becomes large. Schapire et al. attempted to explain this phenomenon i...

Margin-Based Ranking Meets Boosting in the Middle
Abstract. We present several results related to ranking. We give a general margin-based bound for ranking based on the L∞ covering number of the hypothesis space. Our bound sugge...

On the Dynamics of Boosting
In order to understand AdaBoost’s dynamics, especially its ability to maximize margins, we derive an associated simplified nonlinear iterated map and analyze its behavior in lo...

Leveraging the margin more carefully
Boosting is a popular approach for building accurate classifiers. Despite the initial popular belief, boosting algorithms do exhibit overfitting and are sensitive to label noise. ...

The Margin Perceptron with Unlearning
We introduce into the classical Perceptron algorithm with margin a mechanism of unlearning which in the course of the regular update allows for a reduction of possible contributio...
