  • Abstract
    Support vector machines are one of the most employed methods of pattern classification, and the Adaboost algorithm is an effective way of improving the performance of the weak learners that compose the ensemble. In this article, we propose to create an Adaboost-based ensemble of SVM, by altering the Gaussian width parameter of the RBF-SVM. Using data sets from the UCI repository, we made tests to evaluate the algorithm.
