Optimally-Smooth Adaptive Boosting and Application to Agnostic Learning
We describe a new boosting algorithm that is the first such algorithm to be both smooth and adaptive. These two features make possible performance improvements for many learning ...

A smoothed boosting algorithm using probabilistic output codes
AdaBoost.OC has shown to be an effective method in boosting "weak" binary classifiers for multi-class learning. It employs the Error Correcting Output Code (ECOC) method...

Smooth Boosting for Margin-Based Ranking
We propose a new boosting algorithm for bipartite ranking problems. Our boosting algorithm, called SoftRankBoost, is a modification of RankBoost which maintains only smooth distri...

Boosting Based on a Smooth Margin
Abstract. We study two boosting algorithms, Coordinate Ascent Boosting and Approximate Coordinate Ascent Boosting, which are explicitly designed to produce maximum margins. To deri...

On Boosting with Polynomially Bounded Distributions
We construct a framework which allows an algorithm to turn the distributions produced by some boosting algorithms into polynomially smooth distributions (w.r.t. the PAC oracle...
