Suboptimality of MDL and Bayes in Classification under Misspecification
Published on Feb 25, 20073212 Views
We show that forms of Bayesian and MDL learning that are often applied to classification problems can be *statistically inconsistent*. We present a large family of classifiers and a distribution such
