Multi-Instance Learning from Supervised View
Abstract In multi-instance learning, the training set comprises labeled bags that are composed of unlabeled instances, and the task is to predict the labels of unseen bags. This pa...

Monte Carlo Theory as an Explanation of Bagging and Boosting
In this paper we propose the framework of Monte Carlo algorithms as a useful one to analyze ensemble learning. In particular, this framework allows one to guess when bagging will ...

Combining predictions for accurate recommender systems
We analyze the application of ensemble learning to recommender systems on the Netflix Prize dataset. For our analysis we use a set of diverse state-of-the-art collaborative filt...

SWITCH: A Novel Approach to Ensemble Learning for Heterogeneous Data
The standard framework of machine learning problems assumes that the available data is independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.). However, in some applications such as image...

Ensembles of Classifiers from Spatially Disjoint Data
We describe an ensemble learning approach that accurately learns from data that has been partitioned according to the arbitrary spatial requirements of a large-scale simulation whe...

Learning to Predict Salient Regions from Disjoint and Skewed Training Sets
We present an ensemble learning approach that achieves accurate predictions from arbitrarily partitioned data. The partitions come from the distributed processing requirements of ...

Prior-updating ensemble learning for discrete HMM
Ensemble learning is a variational Bayesian method in which an intractable distribution is approximated by a lower-bound. Ensemble learning results in models with better generaliz...

Multi-information Ensemble Diversity
Abstract. Understanding ensemble diversity is one of the most important fundamental issues in ensemble learning. Inspired by a recent work trying to explain ensemble diversity from...
