Bootstrap confidence intervals for classification error rate in circular models when a block of observations is missing

  • Published : 2009.07.31

Abstract

In discriminant analysis, we consider a special pattern which contains a block of missing observations. We assume that the two populations are equally likely and the costs of misclassification are equal. In this situation, we consider the bootstrap confidence intervals of the error rate in the circular models when the covariance matrices are equal and not equal.
