Efficient progressive sampling
Open accessAbstract
Having access to massive amounts of data does not necessarily imply that induction algorithms must use them all.Samples often provide the same accuracy with far less computational cost.However, the correct sample size rarely is obvious.We analyze methods for progressive samplingusing progressively larger samples as long as model accuracy improves.We explore several notions of efficient progressive sampling.We analyze efficiency relative to induction with all instances; we show that a simple, geometric sampling schedule is asymptotically optimal, and we describe how best to take into account prior expectations of accuracy convergence.We then describe the issues involved in instantiating an efficient progressive sampler, including how to detect convergence.Finally, we provide empirical results comparing a variety of progressive sampling methods.We conclude that progressive sampling can be remarkably efficient .

“Some researchers aimed to develop a “power law” that can be used to determine the relation between sample size and the discriminatory ability of prediction models in terms of accuracy [8-10].”

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.
