by ∊
Inference:
Understanding relationship b/w input X & Y
Advantages Disadvantages
Simplify the problem by assuming f May not match original f
Advantages Disadvantages
More accurate because no restriction or Large observations are required to check
assumption to model for shape of f shape of f
• good classifier is one for which the test error rate is smallest
• Bayes Classifier predictions are based on greatest probability
• It produces lowest possible test error rate - Bayes’ error rate
