Robust Classification for Imprecise Environments
In real-world environments it usually is difficult to specify target operating conditions precisely, for example, target misclassification costs. This uncertainty makes building ro...

Cost curves: An improved method for visualizing classifier performance
Abstract This paper introduces cost curves, a graphical technique for visualizing the performance (error rate or expected cost) of 2-class classifiers over the full range of possib...

Learning When Training Data are Costly: The Effect of Class Distribution on Tree Induction
For large, real-world inductive learning problems, the number of training examples often must be limited due to the costs associated with procuring, preparing, and storing the tra...
