1 A Brief Introduction to Adaboost Hongbo Deng 6 Feb, 2007 Some of the slides are borrowed from Derek Hoiem & Jan ˇSochman. 1
2 Outline Background Adaboost Algorithm Theory/Interpretations 2
3 What s So Good About Adaboost Can be used with many different classifiers Improves classification accuracy Commonly used in many areas Simple to implement Not prone to overfitting 3
4 A Brief History Resampling for estimating statistic Bootstrapping Bagging Boosting (Schapire 1989) Resampling for classifier design Adaboost (Schapire 1995) 4
5 Bootstrap Estimation Repeatedly draw n samples from D For each set of samples, estimate a statistic The bootstrap estimate is the mean of the individual estimates Used to estimate a statistic (parameter) and its variance 5
6 Bagging - Aggregate Bootstrapping For i = 1.. M Draw n * <n samples from D with replacement Learn classifier C i Final classifier is a vote of C 1.. C M Increases classifier stability/reduces variance D1 D2 D3 D 6
7 Boosting (Schapire 1989) Consider creating three component classifiers for a two-category problem through boosting. Randomly select n 1 < n samples from D without replacement to obtain D 1 Train weak learner C 1 Select n 2 < n samples from D with half of the samples misclassified by C 1 to obtain D 2 Train weak learner C 2 Select all remaining samples from D that C 1 and C 2 disagree on Train weak learner C 3 Final classifier is vote of weak learners D1 D3 D D
8 Adaboost - Adaptive Boosting Instead of resampling, uses training set re-weighting Each training sample uses a weight to determine the probability of being selected for a training set. AdaBoost is an algorithm for constructing a strong classifier as linear combination of simple weak classifier Final classification based on weighted vote of weak classifiers 8
9 Adaboost Terminology h t (x) weak or basis classifier (Classifier = Learner = Hypothesis) strong or final classifier Weak Classifier: < 50% error over any distribution Strong Classifier: thresholded linear combination of weak classifier outputs 9
10 Discrete Adaboost Algorithm Each training sample has a weight, which determines the probability of being selected for training the component classifier 10
11 Find the Weak Classifier 11
12 Find the Weak Classifier 12
13 The algorithm core 13
14 Reweighting y * h(x) = 1 y * h(x) = -1 14
15 Reweighting In this way, AdaBoost focused on the informative or difficult examples. 15
