The empirical error on a test set, the hold-out estimate, often is a more reliable estimate of generalization error than the observed error on the training set, the training estim...
Given a multichannel loudspeaker system, the selection of the crossover frequency between the sub-woofer and the satellite speakers is important for accurate (i.e., distortionfree...
