Classification boundaries

Different classifiers are biased towards different kinds of decision. Ian Witten explores the classification boundaries for some example classifiers.

Different classifiers are biased towards different kinds of decision. You can see this by examining classification boundaries for various machine learning methods trained on a 2D dataset with numeric attributes. Here we use Weka’s Boundary Visualizer to plot boundaries for some example classifiers: OneR, IBk, Naive Bayes, and J48. Characteristic patterns appear.
