Method of, and system for, classification count adjustment
First Claim
1. A classification count adjustment system for adjusting a count estimate of items in a dataset classified into a class, the system comprising:
- a count estimate produced by a classifier of the number of items in the dataset classified into the class;
one or more measures of behavior of the classifier indicating the ability of the classifier to classify the items into the class; and
a processor for computing an adjusted estimate based on the count estimate by the classifier and the one or more measures of behavior.

Abstract
A classification count adjustment system for adjusting a count estimate of items in a dataset D classified into a class is disclosed. The system includes a count estimate produced by a classifier of the number of items in the dataset D classified into the class. The system further comprises one or more measures of behavior of the classifier, indicating the ability of the classifier to classify items into the class. The system further comprises a processor for computing an adjusted estimate based on the count estimate by the classifier and the one or more measures of behavior.

32. A computer program to control a computer to adjust a count estimate of items in a dataset classified in a class, the computer program being operable to control the computer to:
-
obtain a count estimate by a classifier of the number of items in the dataset classified into the class;
use one or more measures of behavior of the classifier to indicate the ability of the classifier to classify the items into the class; and
compute an adjusted estimate based on the count estimate by the classifier and the one or more measures of behavior.
