Abstract

In the above-mentioned paper, Henrichon and Fu present a non- parametric procedure for multivariate, multiclass pattern classification. They obtain a confidence bound on the probability of error through the theory of distribution-free tolerance regions. However, their procedure for obtaining a confidence bound on the basis of a sample from each class is not valid.
