	Boosting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Boosting is a machine learning meta-algorithm for performing supervised learning.
		There are several different boosting algorithms, depending on the exact mathematical form of the strength and weight.
		Boosting is based on probably approximately correct learning (PAC learning), which is a branch of computational learning theory.

	AdaBoost - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		AdaBoost, short for Adaptive Boosting, was formulated by Yoav Freund and Robert Schapire.
		It is a meta-algorithm, and can be used in conjunction with many other learning algorithms to improve their performance.

	Signal + Noise: Boosting Music
		Boosting is a technique originally used for the long standing statistical problem known as classification.
		The boosted classifier is built by aggregating the responses of the weak classifiers in a weighted average.
		The boosted classifier is a weighted average of the weak classifiers, with classifier weights corresponding to performance at each stage.

	Blood Boosting: Health Topics: UI Health Care
		Other names for blood boosting are "blood doping" and "blood packing." Blood boosting is unethical and medically unsound.
		Another type of blood boosting is the injection of a synthetic hormone that stimulates the body to make more red blood cells.
		Negative effects that are associated with blood boosting are that too many blood cells result in "thick blood." As dehydration progresses, the blood becomes even thicker.

	Bird Boosting
		The bird feels the strengthening of the lower perch, the one that it's supposed to be leaving, and "lays" back on that solid, lifting perch.
		Instead of boosting you should be doing just the opposite; make the old finger/hand melt away while the new, proffered finger becomes the strong, trustworthy perch.
		And instead of boosting with the other hand, have that "old" perch melt away.

		This would enable the operator to have higher prices for higher guaranteed levels of service, wherein the support for these types of rates can often be seen as a business expense and potentially passed in some way to clients.
		If the monthly rates for such services are high enough, it not only offsets losses for creating lower tiers of service, but would tend to boost overall revenues by developing a higher quantity of demand.

		Abstract: Breiman's bagging and Freund and Schapire's boosting are recent methods for improving the predictive power of classifier learning systems.
		Both form a set of classifiers that are combined by voting, bagging by generating replicated bootstrap samples of the data, and boosting by adjusting the weights of training instances.
		This paper reports results of applying both techniques to a system that learns decision trees and testing on a representative collection of datasets.

		Researchers at the Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, Minn., say they've found a means of boosting the output of disease-fighting immune cells by the thymus, a tiny organ located in the upper chest.
		Reporting in the current issue of AIDS, the Mayo team studied immune system responses in health workers accidentally exposed to HIV.
		However, the researchers also found that ART dramatically boosted (up to a factor of 1,000) thymus production of cells from which the immune system makes disease-fighting T-cells.
