| book description |
Ensemble methods that train multiple learners and then combine them to use, with Boosting and Bagging as representatives, are well-known machine learning approaches. It has become common sense that an ensemble is usually significantly more accurate than a single learner, and ensemble methods have already achieved great success in various real-world tasks. Twelve years have passed since the publication of the first edition of the book in 2012 (Japanese and Chinese versions published in 2017 and 2020, respectively). Many significant advances in this field have been developed. First, many theoretical issues have been tackled, for example, the fundamental question of why AdaBoost seems resistant to overfitting gets addressed, so that now we understand much more about the essence of ensemble methods. Second, ensemble methods have been well developed in more machine learning fields, e.g., isolation forest in anomaly detection, so that now we have powerful ensemble methods for tasks beyond conventional supervised learning. Third, ensemble mechanisms have also been found helpful in emerging areas such as deep learning and online learning. This edition expands on the previous one with additional content to reflect the significant advances in the field, and is written in a concise but comprehensive style to be approachable to readers new to the subject.
