1. A method comprising:
- selecting at least one parameter setting that affects a number of cases predicted positive by a classifier;
determining at least one measure pertaining to plural cases, the at least one measure dependent upon the selected at least one parameter setting;
receiving an estimated quantity of the plural cases relating to at least one class; and
calculating an aggregate of attribute values associated with the plural cases based on the estimated quantity and the at least one measure.

Abstract
To calculate an aggregate of attribute values associated with plural cases, at least one parameter setting that affects a number of cases predicted positive by a classifier is selected. At least one measure pertaining to the plural cases is calculated, where the at least one measure is dependent upon the selected at least one parameter setting. An estimated quantity of the plural cases relating to at least one class is received. The aggregate of attribute values associated with the plural cases is calculated based on the estimated quantity and the at least one measure

10. A method comprising:
-
determining a first value of a particular attribute for cases identified as positives for an issue by a classifier; determining a second value of the particular attribute for cases identified as positives for the issue by the classifier; computing weights to apply to the first and second values; and calculating an aggregate of attribute values associated with plural cases based on the weights and the first and second values. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. Instructions on a computer-usable medium that when executed cause a computer to:
-
determine at least one parameter that is indicative of a performance of a classifier; determine at least one measure pertaining to plural cases, the at least one measure dependent upon the at least one parameter that is indicative of the performance of the classifier; receive an estimated quantity of the plural cases relating to at least one class, wherein the estimated quantity is different from a quantity of cases identified by a classifier as relating to the at least one class; and calculate an aggregate of attribute values associated with the plural cases based on the estimated quantity and the at least one measure. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)

21. A method comprising:
-
computing a precision measure that indicates a precision of a classifier; determining at least one measure pertaining to plural cases; adjusting the at least one measure based on the precision measure; and calculating an aggregate of attribute values associated with the plural cases based on an estimated quantity and the adjusted at least one measure. - View Dependent Claims (22)
