Lecture 4 Blog, ECE662 Spring 2012, Prof. Boutin

Thursday January 19, 2012 (Week 2)


We had a good attendance today, considering the treacherous road conditions. Good thing it is, because we covered the most basic principle of statistical decision theory today, namely Bayes decision rule. We first presented the rule for discrete-valued feature vectors, and illustrated it using the previously discussed example of determining a person's gender from his/her hair length. We finished the lecture by generalizing to the case of continuous-valued feature vectors.
