  • The researchers used an ensemble of different models to enhance the accuracy of their predictions.
  • ensemble average
  • a large ensemble

And, and so their approach was actually to use an ensemble method.

Examples

  • Natural variation is much larger, and the model ensembles smooth such variations out.

  • Oh, OK, temperature only has meaning when you have an ensemble of particles that are vibrating.

  • However, they are more amenable to optimization, and the ensemble of methods may perform better.

    Academic text (2017)
  • The ensemble learning uses the same training set that the individual closed-form inference models use.

    Academic text (2017)
  • Instead, they make ensemble forecasts, varying initial conditions and model parameters to create a set of predictions.

  • A third approach to making AI systems robust to model incompleteness is to adopt portfolio (or ensemble) methods.

    Academic text (2017)
  • In this way, each inference model's performance is test-like, and the ensemble model does not overly trust overfit models.

    Academic text (2017)
  • Encounters with probabilities typically involve abstract ensembles of identical systems or repeatable measurements, with probabilities interpreted as frequency ratios.

    Academic text (2003)
  • To achieve better results, the team developed an ensemble that combined various machine learning algorithms.

Etymology

Ensemble comes from the French ensemble, which means 'together' and is like the English word assemble. So in machine learning an ensemble is several models put 'together' to give a better, more reliable result.
