Abstract: The M ULTI B OOST package provides a fast C++ implementation of multi-class/multi-label/multitask boosting algorithms. It is based on A DA B OOST.MH but it also implements popular cascade classifiers and F ILTER B OOST. The package contains common multi-class base learners (stumps, trees, products, Haar filters). Further base learners and strong learners following the boosting paradigm can be easily implemented in a flexible framework. Keywords: boosting, A DA B OOST.MH, F ILTER B OOST, cascade classifier
