Random forests provide an improvement over bagged trees by way of a small tweak that decorrelates the trees.
As in bagging, we build a number of decision trees on bootstrapped training samples. But when building these decision trees, each time a split in a tree is considered, a random sample of \( m \) predictors is chosen as split candidates from the full set of \( p \) predictors. The split is allowed to use only one of those \( m \) predictors.
A fresh sample of \( m \) predictors is taken at each split, and typically we choose $$ m\approx \sqrt{p}. $$
In building a random forest, at each split in the tree, the algorithm is not even allowed to consider a majority of the available predictors.
The reason for this is rather clever. Suppose that there is one very strong predictor in the data set, along with a number of other moderately strong predictors. Then in the collection of bagged variable importance random forest trees, most or all of the trees will use this strong predictor in the top split. Consequently, all of the bagged trees will look quite similar to each other. Hence the predictions from the bagged trees will be highly correlated. Unfortunately, averaging many highly correlated quantities does not lead to as large of a reduction in variance as averaging many uncorrelated quantities. In particular, this means that bagging will not lead to a substantial reduction in variance over a single tree in this setting.
We will grow of forest of say \( B \) trees.

The basic idea is to combine weak classifiers in order to create a good classifier. With a weak classifier we often intend a classifier which produces results which are only slightly better than we would get by random guesses.
This is done by applying in an iterative way a weak (or a standard classifier like decision trees) to modify the data. In each iteration we emphasize those observations which are misclassified by weighting them with a factor.
Boosting is a way of fitting an additive expansion in a set of elementary basis functions like for example some simple polynomials. Assume for example that we have a function $$ f_M(x) = \sum_{i=1}^M \beta_m b(x;\gamma_m), $$
where \( \beta_m \) are the expansion parameters to be determined in a minimization process and \( b(x;\gamma_m) \) are some simple functions of the multivariable parameter \( x \) which is characterized by the parameters \( \gamma_m \).
As an example, consider the Sigmoid function we used in logistic regression. In that case, we can translate the function \( b(x;\gamma_m) \) into the Sigmoid function $$ \sigma(t) = \frac{1}{1+\exp{(-t)}}, $$
where \( t=\gamma_0+\gamma_1 x \) and the parameters \( \gamma_0 \) and \( \gamma_1 \) were determined by the Logistic Regression fitting algorithm.
As another example, consider the cost function we defined for linear regression $$ C(\boldsymbol{y},\boldsymbol{f}) = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i-f(x_i))^2. $$
In this case the function \( f(x) \) was replaced by the design matrix \( \boldsymbol{X} \) and the unknown linear regression parameters \( \boldsymbol{\beta} \), that is \( \boldsymbol{f}=\boldsymbol{X}\boldsymbol{\beta} \). In linear regression we can simply invert a matrix and obtain the parameters \( \beta \) by $$ \boldsymbol{\beta}=\left(\boldsymbol{X}^T\boldsymbol{X}\right)^{-1}\boldsymbol{X}^T\boldsymbol{y}. $$
In iterative fitting or additive modeling, we minimize the cost function with respect to the parameters \( \beta_m \) and \( \gamma_m \).
The way we proceed is as follows (here we specialize to the squared-error cost function)
To better understand what happens, let us develop the steps for the iterative fitting using the above squared error function.
For simplicity we assume also that our functions \( b(x;\gamma)=1+\gamma x \).
This means that for every iteration \( m \), we need to optimize $$ (\beta_m,\gamma_m) = \mathrm{argmin}_{\beta,\lambda}\hspace{0.1cm} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i-f_{m-1}(x_i)-\beta b(x;\gamma))^2=\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i-f_{m-1}(x_i)-\beta(1+\gamma x_i))^2. $$
We start our iteration by simply setting \( f_0(x)=0 \). Taking the derivatives with respect to \( \beta \) and \( \gamma \) we obtain $$ \frac{\partial {\cal C}}{\partial \beta} = -2\sum_{i}(1+\gamma x_i)(y_i-\beta(1+\gamma x_i))=0, $$ and $$ \frac{\partial {\cal C}}{\partial \gamma} =-2\sum_{i}\beta x_i(y_i-\beta(1+\gamma x_i))=0. $$ We can then rewrite these equations as (defining \( \boldsymbol{w}=\boldsymbol{e}+\gamma \boldsymbol{x}) \) with \( \boldsymbol{e} \) being the unit vector) $$ \gamma \boldsymbol{w}^T(\boldsymbol{y}-\beta\gamma \boldsymbol{w})=0, $$ which gives us \( \beta = \boldsymbol{w}^T\boldsymbol{y}/(\boldsymbol{w}^T\boldsymbol{w}) \). Similarly we have $$ \beta\gamma \boldsymbol{x}^T(\boldsymbol{y}-\beta(1+\gamma \boldsymbol{x}))=0, $$
which leads to \( \gamma =(\boldsymbol{x}^T\boldsymbol{y}-\beta\boldsymbol{x}^T\boldsymbol{e})/(\beta\boldsymbol{x}^T\boldsymbol{x}) \). Inserting for \( \beta \) gives us an equation for \( \gamma \). This is a non-linear equation in the unknown \( \gamma \) and has to be solved numerically.
The solution to these two equations gives us in turn \( \beta_1 \) and \( \gamma_1 \) leading to the new expression for \( f_1(x) \) as \( f_1(x) = \beta_1(1+\gamma_1x) \). Doing this \( M \) times results in our final estimate for the function \( f \).
Let us consider a binary classification problem with two outcomes \( y_i \in \{-1,1\} \) and \( i=0,1,2,\dots,n-1 \) as our set of observations. We define a classification function \( G(x) \) which produces a prediction taking one or the other of the two values \( \{-1,1\} \).
The error rate of the training sample is then $$ \mathrm{\overline{err}}=\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} I(y_i\ne G(x_i)). $$
The iterative procedure starts with defining a weak classifier whose error rate is barely better than random guessing. The iterative procedure in boosting is to sequentially apply a weak classification algorithm to repeatedly modified versions of the data producing a sequence of weak classifiers \( G_m(x) \).
Here we will express our function \( f(x) \) in terms of \( G(x) \). That is $$ f_M(x) = \sum_{i=1}^M \beta_m b(x;\gamma_m), $$ will be a function of $$ G_M(x) = \mathrm{sign} \sum_{i=1}^M \alpha_m G_m(x). $$
In our iterative procedure we define thus $$ f_m(x) = f_{m-1}(x)+\beta_mG_m(x). $$
The simplest possible cost function which leads (also simple from a computational point of view) to the AdaBoost algorithm is the exponential cost/loss function defined as $$ C(\boldsymbol{y},\boldsymbol{f}) = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1}\exp{(-y_i(f_{m-1}(x_i)+\beta G(x_i))}. $$
We optimize \( \beta \) and \( G \) for each value of \( m=1:M \) as we did in the regression case. This is normally done in two steps. Let us however first rewrite the cost function as $$ C(\boldsymbol{y},\boldsymbol{f}) = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1}w_i^{m}\exp{(-y_i\beta G(x_i))}, $$ where we have defined \( w_i^m= \exp{(-y_if_{m-1}(x_i))} \).
First, for any \( \beta > 0 \), we optimize \( G \) by setting $$ G_m(x) = \mathrm{sign} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} w_i^m I(y_i \ne G_(x_i)), $$ which is the classifier that minimizes the weighted error rate in predicting \( y \).
We can do this by rewriting $$ \exp{-(\beta)}\sum_{y_i=G(x_i)}w_i^m+\exp{(\beta)}\sum_{y_i\ne G(x_i)}w_i^m, $$ which can be rewritten as $$ (\exp{(\beta)}-\exp{-(\beta)})\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}w_i^mI(y_i\ne G(x_i))+\exp{(-\beta)}\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}w_i^m=0, $$ which leads to $$ \beta_m = \frac{1}{2}\log{\frac{1-\mathrm{\overline{err}}}{\mathrm{\overline{err}}}}, $$ where we have redefined the error as $$ \mathrm{\overline{err}}_m=\frac{1}{n}\frac{\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}w_i^mI(y_i\ne G(x_i)}{\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}w_i^m}, $$ which leads to an update of $$ f_m(x) = f_{m-1}(x) +\beta_m G_m(x). $$ This leads to the new weights $$ w_i^{m+1} = w_i^m \exp{(-y_i\beta_m G_m(x_i))} $$
The algorithm here is rather straightforward. Assume that our weak classifier is a decision tree and we consider a binary set of outputs with \( y_i \in \{-1,1\} \) and \( i=0,1,2,\dots,n-1 \) as our set of observations. Our design matrix is given in terms of the feature/predictor vectors \( \boldsymbol{X}=[\boldsymbol{x}_0\boldsymbol{x}_1\dots\boldsymbol{x}_{p-1}] \). Finally, we define also a classifier determined by our data via a function \( G(x) \). This function tells us how well we are able to classify our outputs/targets \( \boldsymbol{y} \).
We have already defined the misclassification error \( \mathrm{err} \) as $$ \mathrm{err}=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}I(y_i\ne G(x_i)), $$ where the function \( I() \) is one if we misclassify and zero if we classify correctly.
With the above definitions we are now ready to set up the algorithm for AdaBoost. The basic idea is to set up weights which will be used to scale the correctly classified and the misclassified cases.
Using Scikit-Learn it is easy to apply the adaptive boosting algorithm, as done here.

Here we present Drucker's AdaBoost tailored for regression.
In bagging, each training example is equally likely to be picked. In boosting, the probability of a particular example being in the training set of a particular machine depends on the performance of the prior machines on that example. The following is a modification of Adaboost by Drucker.
Start by selecting a set of training data \( n \) and assign to each entry a weight \( w_i=1 \) for \( i=1,2,\dots,n \). As we have done earlier, we could pick say \( 80\% \) of the data set for training. The algorithm runs as follows:
Gradient boosting is again a similar technique to Adaptive boosting, it combines so-called weak classifiers or regressors into a strong method via a series of iterations.
In order to understand the method, let us illustrate its basics by bringing back the essential steps in linear regression, where our cost function was the least squares function.
We start again with our cost function \( {\cal C}(\boldsymbol{y}m\boldsymbol{f})=\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}{\cal L}(y_i, f(x_i)) \) where we want to minimize This means that for every iteration, we need to optimize $$ (\hat{\boldsymbol{f}}) = \mathrm{argmin}_{\boldsymbol{f}}\hspace{0.1cm} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i-f(x_i))^2. $$
We define a real function \( h_m(x) \) that defines our final function \( f_M(x) \) as $$ f_M(x) = \sum_{m=0}^M h_m(x). $$
In the steepest decent approach we approximate \( h_m(x) = -\rho_m g_m(x) \), where \( \rho_m \) is a scalar and \( g_m(x) \) the gradient defined as $$ g_m(x_i) = \left[ \frac{\partial {\cal L}(y_i, f(x_i))}{\partial f(x_i)}\right]_{f(x_i)=f_{m-1}(x_i)}. $$
With the new gradient we can update \( f_m(x) = f_{m-1}(x) -\rho_m g_m(x) \). Using the above squared-error function we see that the gradient is \( g_m(x_i) = -2(y_i-f(x_i)) \).
Choosing \( f_0(x)=0 \) we obtain \( g_m(x) = -2y_i \) and inserting this into the minimization problem for the cost function we have $$ (\rho_1) = \mathrm{argmin}_{\rho}\hspace{0.1cm} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i+2\rho y_i)^2. $$
Optimizing with respect to \( \rho \) we obtain (taking the derivative) that \( \rho_1 = -1/2 \). We have then that $$ f_1(x) = f_{0}(x) -\rho_1 g_1(x)=-y_i. $$ We can then proceed and compute $$ g_2(x_i) = \left[ \frac{\partial {\cal L}(y_i, f(x_i))}{\partial f(x_i)}\right]_{f(x_i)=f_{1}(x_i)=y_i}=-4y_i, $$ and find a new value for \( \rho_2=-1/2 \) and continue till we have reached \( m=M \). We can modify the steepest descent method, or steepest boosting, by introducing what is called gradient boosting.
Suppose we have a cost function \( C(f)=\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}L(y_i, f(x_i)) \) where \( y_i \) is our target and \( f(x_i) \) the function which is meant to model \( y_i \). The above cost function could be our standard squared-error function $$ C(\boldsymbol{y},\boldsymbol{f})=\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i-f(x_i))^2. $$
The way we proceed in an iterative fashion is to
We discuss here the difference between the steepest descent approach and gradient boosting by repeating our simple regression example above.

XGBoost or Extreme Gradient Boosting, is an optimized distributed gradient boosting library designed to be highly efficient, flexible and portable. It implements machine learning algorithms under the Gradient Boosting framework. XGBoost provides a parallel tree boosting that solve many data science problems in a fast and accurate way. See the article by Chen and Guestrin.
The authors design and build a highly scalable end-to-end tree boosting system. It has a theoretically justified weighted quantile sketch for efficient proposal calculation. It introduces a novel sparsity-aware algorithm for parallel tree learning and an effective cache-aware block structure for out-of-core tree learning.
It is now the algorithm which wins essentially all ML competitions!!!
