Samenvatting	Boosting is a sequential ensemble technique that converts many simple, barely-better-than-chance learners into a single highly accurate model by repeatedly focusing training on the examples that previous learners got wrong, then combining all learners with weights proportional to their individual accuracy.	Regularized boosting extends gradient boosting by adding explicit controls — shrinkage (learning rate), L1/L2 weight penalties, subsampling, and tree-complexity limits — to the objective function and the update rule. These constraints reduce overfitting, stabilise the model on noisy or small datasets, and are the core reason why systems such as XGBoost and LightGBM consistently outperform vanilla boosting on real-world tabular benchmarks.	Robust Gradient Boosting is gradient boosting trained with outlier-resistant loss functions — most commonly the Huber loss or quantile (pinball) loss — instead of squared-error loss. Proposed in Friedman's seminal 2001 paper, this variant produces predictions far less distorted by extreme values or contaminated labels, while retaining the full predictive power of gradient-boosted trees.
