The Prediction Advantage: A Universally Meaningful Performance Measure for Classification and Regression

no code implementations23 May 2017 Ran El-Yaniv, Yonatan Geifman, Yair Wiener

We introduce the Prediction Advantage (PA), a novel performance measure for prediction functions under any loss function (e. g., classification or regression).

A Compression Technique for Analyzing Disagreement-Based Active Learning

no code implementations5 Apr 2014 Yair Wiener, Steve Hanneke, Ran El-Yaniv

We introduce a new and improved characterization of the label complexity of disagreement-based active learning, in which the leading quantity is the version space compression set size.

Agnostic Selective Classification

no code implementations NeurIPS 2011 Yair Wiener, Ran El-Yaniv

For a learning problem whose associated excess loss class is $(\beta, B)$-Bernstein, we show that it is theoretically possible to track the same classification performance of the best (unknown) hypothesis in our class, provided that we are free to abstain from prediction in some region of our choice.
