The Ultimate Beginner Guide to Boosting

Towards Data Science

Boosting is a meta-algorithm from the ensemble learning paradigm where multiple models (often termed “weak learners”) are trained to solve the same problem and combined to get better results. This…

Boosting Trees and AdaBoost: An Introduction

Analytics Vidhya

Boosting is an iterative assembly mechanism in which models are trained one after the other. These models are referred to as “poor learners” because they are basic prediction rules that only…
