Discussion of "the evolution of boosting algorithms" and "extending statistical boosting".
This article is part of a For-Discussion-Section of Methods of Information in Medicine about the papers "The Evolution of Boosting Algorithms - From Machine Learning to Statistical Modelling" and "Extending Statistical Boosting - An Overview of Recent Methodological Developments", written by Andreas Mayr and co-authors. It is introduced by an editorial. This article contains the combined commen...
متن کاملBoosting Automatic Lexical Acquisition With Morphological Information
In this paper we investigate the impact of morphological features on the task of automatically extending a dictionary. We approach the problem as a pattern classification task and compare the performance of several models in classifying nouns that are unknown to a broad coverage dictionary. We used a boosting classifier to compare the performance of models that use different sets of features. W...
متن کاملBoosting in Cox regression: a comparison between the likelihood-based and the model-based approaches with focus on the R-packages CoxBoost and mboost
Despite the limitations imposed by the proportional hazards assumption, the Cox model is probably the most popular statistical tool used to analyze survival data, thanks to its flexibility and ease of interpretation. For this reason, novel statistical/machine learning techniques are usually adapted to fit it, including boosting, an iterative technique originally developed in the machine learnin...
متن کاملBoosting - an unusual yet attractive optimiser.
This editorial is part of a For-Discussion-Section of Methods of Information in Medicine about the papers "The Evolution of Boosting Algorithms - From Machine Learning to Statistical Modelling" and "Extending Statistical Boosting - An Overview of Recent Methodological Developments", written by Andreas Mayr and co-authors. It preludes two discussed reviews on developments and applications of boo...
متن کاملBoosting Algorithms: Regularization, Prediction and Model Fitting
We present a statistical perspective on boosting. Special emphasis is given to estimating potentially complex parametric or nonparametric models, including generalized linear and additive models as well as regression models for survival analysis. Concepts of degrees of freedom and corresponding Akaike or Bayesian information criteria, particularly useful for regularization and variable selectio...
