From: Non-invasive optical estimate of tissue composition to differentiate malignant from benign breast lesions: A pilot study

Start with weights wi = 1/N

Repeat for m = 1, 2, …, M:

 -Fit the classifier fm(x)  {−1, 1} using weights wi on the training data

 -Compute View full size image

 -Set and renormalize so that

Output the classifier
