This paper presents an interactive video event retrieval system based on improved adaboost learning. This system consists of three main steps. Firstly, a long video sequence is pa...
We address the question of whether and how boosting and bagging can be used for speech recognition. In order to do this, we compare two different boosting schemes, one at the pho...
In this paper we examine ensemble methods for regression that leverage or "boost" base regressors by iteratively calling them on modified samples. The most successful lev...
This paper presents our solution for KDD Cup 2008 competition that aims at optimizing the area under ROC for breast cancer detection. We exploited weighted-based classification me...
