Exploiting diversity for optimizing margin distribution in ensemble learning

作者:

Highlights:

• Double Rotation is proposed to produce diversity among base classifiers.

• We construct a margin related loss function to learn the weights of base classifiers.

• Margin Based Pruning is proposed to improve margin distribution of ensembles.

• Extensive experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness of DRMP.

• We explain the rationality of DRMP from different perspectives.
