CMA (version 1.30.0)

compBoostCMA-methods: Componentwise Boosting

Description

Roughly speaking, Boosting combines 'weak learners' in a weighted manner in a stronger ensemble.

'Weak learners' here consist of linear functions in one component (variable), as proposed by Buehlmann and Yu (2003).

It also generates sparsity and can as well be as used for variable selection alone. (s. GeneSelection.)
