Confidence Interval of Probability Estimator of Laplace Smoothing
Masato Kikuchi, Mitsuo Yoshida, Masayuki Okabe +1
Sometimes, we do not use a maximum likelihood estimator of a probability but it's a smoothed estimator in order to cope with the zero frequency problem. This is often the case when…

Using Conservative Estimation for Conditional Probability instead of Ignoring Infrequent Case
Masato Kikuchi, Eiko Yamamoto, Mitsuo Yoshida +2
There are several estimators of conditional probability from observed frequencies of features. In this paper, we propose using the lower limit of confidence interval on posterior d…
