Abstract

Ensemble methods are machine learning methods that construct a set of models and combine their outputs into a single prediction. The models within an ensemble can have different structure and parameters and make diverse predictions. Ensembles achieve high predictive performance, benefiting from the diversity of the individual models and outperforming them.
