CORE DEFINITION

Adaptive Boosting. Train a series of weak classifiers, each new classifier focuses on the data misclassified by the previous one, and finally combine them with weights. Scaffolding role: Three cobblers with their wits combined equal Zhuge Liang. It proves that combining multiple simple, mediocre models, as long as they are complementary (focus on different errors), can build a top-level strong model.
