Boosting algorithms for simultaneous feature extraction and selection
The problem of simultaneous feature extraction and selection, for classifier design, is considered. A new framework is proposed, based on boosting algorithms that can either 1) s...

Boosting in the presence of noise
Boosting algorithms are procedures that "boost" low-accuracy weak learning algorithms to achieve arbitrarily high accuracy. Over the past decade boosting has been widely...

Generalized Boosting Algorithms for Convex Optimization
Boosting is a popular way to derive powerful learners from simpler hypothesis classes. Following previous work (Mason et al., 1999; Friedman, 2000) on general boosting frameworks,...

Beyond Log-Linear Models: Boosted Minimum Error Rate Training for N-best Re-ranking
Current re-ranking algorithms for machine translation rely on log-linear models, which have the potential problem of underfitting the training data. We present BoostedMERT, a nove...
