Question

Transcribed Image Text:The
Ваyes
decision
functions
d;(x) = p(x|w;) p(w;), j = 1, 2, . w; were
derived using a 0 – 1 loss function. Prove
...
that these decision functions minimize the
probability of error. Find p(c) and show
that p(c) is maximum, when p(x |w;) p(w;)
is maximum. Assume that the probability
of error p(e) is 1 – p(c) where p(c) is
probability of being correct and for a
pattern vector x belonging to class W¡,
p(c|x) = p(w;|x).
