Class AdaBoostTrainer

java.lang.Object

cc.mallet.classify.ClassifierTrainer<AdaBoost>

cc.mallet.classify.AdaBoostTrainer

public class AdaBoostTrainer
extends ClassifierTrainer<AdaBoost>

This version of AdaBoost should be used only for binary classification. Use AdaBoost.M2 for multi-class problems.
