Abstract

We offer an algorithm for random generation of classifier outputs with specified individual accuracies and pairwise dependencies. The outputs are binary vectors (correct/incorrect classification) for a hypothetical data set. The generated team output can be used to study the majority vote over multiple dependent classifiers.
