Abstract:Based on the analysis of these loss functions, Smoothed 0-1 Loss Function has been proposed, applied and evaluated in binary data classification [13]. However, in many real applications we are more interested in solving multiclass problems where there are more than two classes. This paper examines the application of Smoothed 0-1 Loss Function to multiclass classification problems. Fisher consistency of the smoothed 0-1 loss function is investigated. Based on the smoothed 0-1 loss function, a multiclass classif… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
