Derived stagewise functional-gradient boosting methods for multiple losses, including tree-based refinements.
Scientific scope
The record is Friedman's sole-author 2001 Annals of Statistics paper. It does not absorb Schapire's weak-to-strong result, AdaBoost, CART, XGBoost or every later boosting implementation; empirical claims remain limited to the paper's studies.
