Composite Binary Losses
Mark D. Reid, Robert C. Williamson
We study losses for binary classification and class probability estimation and extend the understanding of them from margin losses to general composite losses which are the composi…

Generalised Pinsker Inequalities
Mark D. Reid, Robert C. Williamson
We generalise the classical Pinsker inequality which relates variational divergence to Kullback-Liebler divergence in two ways: we consider arbitrary f-divergences in place of KL d…

Information, Divergence and Risk for Binary Experiments
Mark D. Reid, Robert C. Williamson
We unify f-divergences, Bregman divergences, surrogate loss bounds (regret bounds), proper scoring rules, matching losses, cost curves, ROC-curves and information. We do this by sy…
