Boosting Algorithms: Regularization, Prediction and Model Fitting

Boosting Algorithms: Regularization, Prediction and Model Fitting

We present a statistical perspective on boosting. Special emphasis is given to estimating potentially complex parametric or nonparametric models, including generalized linear and additive models as well as regression models for survival analysis. Concepts of degrees of freedom and corresponding Akaike or Bayesian information criteria, particularly useful for regularization and …
