Title: TF Boosted Trees: A scalable TensorFlow based framework for gradient boosting,
Abstract: TF Boosted Trees (TFBT) is a new open-sourced frame-work for the distributed
training of gradient boosted trees. It is based on TensorFlow, and its
distinguishing features include a novel architecture, automatic loss
differentiation, layer-by-layer boosting that results in smaller ensembles and
faster prediction, principled multi-class handling, and a number of
regularization techniques to prevent overfitting.
