Fully corrective boosting with arbitrary loss and regularization

Abstract
En 中文
We propose a general framework for analyzing and developing fully corrective boosting-based classifiers. The framework accepts any convex objective function, and allows any convex (for example, l(p)-norm, p >= 1) regularization term. By placing the wide variety of existing fully corrective boosting-based classifiers on a common footing, and considering the primal and dual problems together, the framework allows a direct comparison between apparently disparate methods. By solving the primal rather than the dual the framework is capable of generating efficient fully-corrective boosting algorithms without recourse to sophisticated convex optimization processes. We show that a range of additional boosting-based algorithms can be incorporated into the framework despite not being fully corrective. Finally, we provide an empirical analysis of the performance of a variety of the most significant boosting-based classifiers on a few machine learning benchmark datasets. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
