Ensemble deep learning: A review
Ensemble learning combines several individual models to obtain better generalization performance. Currently, deep learning architectures are showing better performance compared to the shallow or traditional models. Deep ensemble learning models combine the advantages of both the deep learning models as well as the ensemble learning such that the final model has better generalization performance. This paper reviews the state-of-art deep ensemble models and hence serves as an extensive summary for the researchers. The ensemble models are broadly categorised into bagging, boosting, stacking, negative correlation based deep ensemble models, explicit/implicit ensembles, homogeneous/heterogeneous ensemble, decision fusion strategies based deep ensemble models. Applications of deep ensemble models in different domains are also briefly discussed. Finally, we conclude this paper with some potential future research directions.
