Multiclass Ensemble Methods with weak classifiers under 50%
Normally, when using an ensemble method, such as baggin or boosting, in binary classification, there is a reqauirment that each weak classifier have accuracy better than 50%.
In the multiclass ...

Is there an approach where the output of one neural network is used to choose the next neural network?
I'd like to design a deep learning architecture in which the output of a primary neural network $M_{\theta}$ determines which neural network $N^i_{\alpha}$ in a set of secondary networks $\mathcal{N}$ ...

How to improve the PMI (Pointwise Mutual Information) Quality for document based PMI
Generating word embeddings from the PMI is well understood and known to be equivalent to SGNS (skipgram negative-sampling) under certain conditions. I was able to get good quality word embedding using ...

How to ensemble two different computer vision models?
I have prepared two distinct models:
Representing contour of the image
Representing edges of the image.
I would like to create a model which can take advantage of both models in predicting data. May ...

How do I take the correct classification predictions of an ml algo (i.e. random forest/neural net) and sort the instances in each category?
I am trying to sort the instances within each of 5 classification categories in a dataset that has been put through both a random forest classifier and a neural network with 99% accuracy on each.
...

Does it make sense to combine classifiers trained on the same dataset?
I am working on a classification problem.
I have a dataset $S$ and I am training several prediction algorithms using S: Naive Bayes, SVM, classification trees.
Intuitively, I was planning to combine ...

How to make an ensemble model of two LSTM models with different window sizes i.e. different data shapes
Below is the Python code for making an ensemble model. All the inputs are the same for all three models. But what if the models have different input shapes due to different window size, such as LSTM ...

When do two identical neural networks have uncorrelated errors?
In Chapter 9, section 9.1.6, Raul Rojas describes how committees of networks can reduce the prediction error by training N identical neural networks and averaging the results.
If $f_i$ are the ...

Would performance of atomic models matter in ensemble methods?
Suppose I have two fitted ensemble models $F_1 := (f_1, f_2, f_3, \cdots f_n)$ and $G_1 := (g_1, g_2, g_3, \cdots g_n)$.
And they were using the same ensemble methods (boosting or bagging).
And I am ...

Why don't ensembling, bagging and boosting help to improve accuracy of Naive bayes classifier?
You might think to apply some classifier combination techniques like ensembling, bagging and boosting but these methods would not help. Actually, “ensembling, boosting, bagging” won’t help since their ...
