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 ...

Distribution-Specific Agnostic Boosting
We consider the problem of boosting the accuracy of weak learning algorithms in the agnostic learning framework of Haussler (1992) and Kearns et al. (1992). Known algorithms for t...

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...

A decision-theoretic generalization of on-line learning and an application to boosting
k. The model we study can be interpreted as a broad, abstract extension of the well-studied on-line prediction model to a general decision-theoretic setting. We show that the multi...
