Online Parallel Boosting
This paper presents a new boosting (arcing) algorithm called POCA, Parallel Online Continuous Arcing. Unlike traditional boosting algorithms (such as Arc-x4 and Adaboost), that co...

On the Equivalence of Weak Learnability and Linear Separability: New Relaxations and Efficient Boosting Algorithms
Boosting algorithms build highly accurate prediction mechanisms from a collection of lowaccuracy predictors. To do so, they employ the notion of weak-learnability. The starting po...

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...

On the design of robust classifiers for computer vision
The design of robust classifiers, which can contend with the noisy and outlier ridden datasets typical of computer vision, is studied. It is argued that such robustness requires l...

Robust Multi-View Boosting with Priors
Many learning tasks for computer vision problems can be described by multiple views or multiple features. These views can be exploited in order to learn from unlabeled data, a.k.a....

Boosting with Temporal Consistent Learners: An Application to Human Activity Recognition
We present a novel boosting algorithm where temporal consistency is addressed in a short-term way. Although temporal correlation of observed data may be an important cue for classi...
