TaylorBoost: First and Second-order Boosting Algorithms with Explicit Margin Control
A new family of boosting algorithms, denoted TaylorBoost, is proposed. It supports any combination of loss function and first or second order optimization, and includes classical...

Unifying the error-correcting and output-code AdaBoost within the margin framework
In this paper, we present a new interpretation of AdaBoost.ECC and AdaBoost.OC. We show that AdaBoost.ECC performs stage-wise functional gradient descent on a cost function, defin...

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 Algorithms for Maximizing the Soft Margin
We present a novel boosting algorithm, called SoftBoost, designed for sets of binary labeled examples that are not necessarily separable by convex combinations of base hypotheses....

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...
