On the Convergence of Leveraging
We give an unified convergence analysis of ensemble learning methods including e.g. AdaBoost, Logistic Regression and the Least-SquareBoost algorithm for regression. These methods...

Improved Boosting Algorithms using Confidence-Rated Predictions
Abstract. We describe several improvements to Freund and Schapire's AdaBoost boosting algorithm, particularly in a setting in which hypotheses may assign confidences to each o...

A Preliminary Investigation of Skype Traffic Classification Using a Minimalist Feature Set
In this work, AdaBoost and C4.5, are employed for classifying Skype direct (UDP and TCP) communications from traffic log files. Pre-processing is applied to the traffic data to ex...
