Effects of sample size in classifier design

Fukunaga, K., Hayes, R.R.·1989·IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence

Abstract

The effect of finite sample-size on parameter estimates and their subsequent use in a family of functions are discussed. General and parameter-specific expressions for the expected bias and variance of the functions are derived. These expressions are then applied to the Bhattacharyya distance and the analysis of the linear and quadratic classifiers, providing insight into the relationship between the number of features and the number of training samples. Because of the functional form of the expressions, an empirical approach is presented to enable asymptotic performance to be accurately estimated using a very small number of samples. Results were experimentally verified using artificial data in controlled cases and using real, high-dimensional data.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
