Computer Science

In an earlier paper, we introduced a new "boosting" algorithm called AdaBoost which, theoretically, can be used to significantly reduce the error of any learning algorithm that con- sistently generates classifiers whose performance is a little better than random guessing. [...] Key Result In the second set of experiments, we studied in more detail the performance of boosting using a nearest-neighbor classifier on an OCR problem.Expand Abstract
