چکیده

We present and empirically evaluate an efficient algorithm that learns to aggregate the predictions of an ensemble of binary classifiers. The algorithm uses the structure of the ensemble predictions on unlabeled data to yield significant performance improvements. It does this without making assumptions on the structure or origin of the ensemble, without parameters, and as scalably as linear learning. We empirically demonstrate these performance gains with random forests.

Combining Classifier Guided by Semi-Supervision

The article suggests an algorithm for regular classifier ensemble methodology. The proposed methodology is based on possibilistic aggregation to classify samples. The argued method optimizes an objective function that combines environment recognition, multi-criteria aggregation term and a learning term. The optimization aims at learning backgrounds as solid clusters in subspaces of the high...

Semi-Supervised Learning Based Prediction of Musculoskeletal Disorder Risk

This study explores a semi-supervised classification approach using random forest as a base classifier to classify the low-back disorders (LBDs) risk associated with the industrial jobs. Semi-supervised classification approach uses unlabeled data together with the small number of labelled data to create a better classifier. The results obtained by the proposed approach are compared with those o...

Optimal Binary Classifier Aggregation for General Losses

We address the problem of aggregating an ensemble of predictors with known loss bounds in a semi-supervised binary classification setting, to minimize prediction loss incurred on the unlabeled data. We find the minimax optimal predictions for a very general class of loss functions including all convex and many non-convex losses, extending a recent analysis of the problem for misclassification e...
