Endogenous Mechanisms of Neuroprotection: To Boost or Not to Be [PDF]
Postmitotic cells, like neurons, must live through a lifetime. For this reason, organisms/cells have evolved with self-repair mechanisms that allow them to have a long life. The discovery workflow of neuroprotectors during the last years has focused on blocking the pathophysiological mechanisms that lead to neuronal loss in neurodegeneration ...

To Boost or not to Boost: On the Limits of Boosted Neural Networks
Boosting is a method for finding a highly accurate hypothesis by linearly combining many ``weak" hypotheses, each of which may be only moderately accurate. Thus, boosting is a method for learning an ensemble of classifiers. While boosting has been shown to be very effective for decision trees, its impact on neural networks has not been extensively ...

ABSTRACT The global gravitational potential, ϕ, is not commonly employed in the analysis of cosmological simulations, since its level sets do not show any clear correspondence to the underlying density field and its persistent structures.

LDA boost classification: boosting by topics [PDF]
AdaBoost is an efficacious classification algorithm especially in text categorization (TC) tasks. The methodology of setting up a classifier committee and voting on the documents for classification can achieve high categorization precision. However, traditional Vector Space Model can easily lead to the curse of dimensionality and feature sparsity ...

Gradient boosting to boost the efficiency of hydraulic fracturing [PDF]
In this paper, we present a data-driven model for forecasting the production increase after hydraulic fracturing (HF). We use data from fracturing jobs performed at one of the Siberian oilfields. The data includes features, characterizing the jobs, and geological information.

Flexible Boosting of Accelerated Failure Time Models [PDF]
When boosting algorithms are used for building survival models from high-dimensional data, it is common to fit a Cox proportional hazards model or to apply semiparametric least squares techniques.

Boosting Additive Models using Component-wise P-Splines [PDF]
We consider an efficient approximation of Bühlmann & Yu’s L2Boosting algorithm with component-wise smoothing splines. Smoothing spline base-learners are replaced by P-spline base-learners which yield similar prediction errors but are more advantageous ...

Forecasting with many predictors - Is boosting a viable alternative? [PDF]
This paper evaluates the forecast performance of boosting, a variable selection device, and compares it with the forecast combination schemes and dynamic factor models presented in Stock and Watson (2006).
