Very cool! Thanks for sharing that
Our group's review of a book on Ensemble Methods: http://www.win-vector.com/blog/2011/07/book-review-ensemble-...
I found this very cool! I clicked on the article thinking it would be about crowdsourcing, but it's actually about a cool machine learning technique I didn't know about. Plus, it was very well explained. Thanks for writing it!
The title was groan inducing, but the article has introduced me to rotation forests. Thanks!
This is a cool ranking that lists various learning algos and how they do on MNIST (which may or my not be a good benchmark for what you're doing). Links to the corresponding papers are provided, including a few ensemble methods (committees), which tend to perform rather well. http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/
