Explore GradientBoosting algorithm used by Wikimedia's ORES #11

From https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Objective_Revision_Evaluation_Service

The Objective Revision Evaluation Service (ORES) is a web service that provides machine learning as a service for Wikimedia Projects. The system is designed to help automate critical wiki-work -- for example, vandalism detection and removal.

It looks like Wikimedia's Objective Revision Evaluation Service (ORES) makes use of the GradientBoosting algorithm. I am curious about:

Why the choice of GradientBoosting
How would it be useful in the context of gabbar

We will soon have a setup to try out multiple algorithms and measure performance. Closing.
