Description |
With respect to a given set of examples the Coverage describes how many of these
examples are classified positive by a (partial) hypothesis.
Note that in the context of concept learning the measure just counts the number of
covered positive examples.
Especially for building disjunctive hypothesis for concept learning it is
favourable to find partial hypothesis (e.g. horn clauses) with high coverage,
but with the additional restriction not to cover any of the negative examples.
One method following this approach is Top-Down Induction of Horn Clauses.
