Probabilistic Bounds for Binary Classification of Large Data Sets
Abstract
A probabilistic model for classification of task relevance is investigated. Correlations between randomly-chosen functions and network input-output functions are estimated. Impact of large data sets is analyzed from the point of view of the concentration of measure phenomenon. The Azuma-Hoeffding Inequality is exploited, which can be applied also when the naive Bayes assumption is not satisfied (i.e., when assignments of class labels to feature vectors are not independent).
