1. A classification count adjustment system comprising:
- a computer-readable storage medium to store;
a count estimate produced by a classifier of a number of items in a dataset that have been classified into a class;
one or more measures of behavior of the classifier indicating an ability of the classifier to classify the items into the class;
a processor for computing an adjusted estimate based on the count estimate by the classifier and the one or more measures of behavior; and
a reporting module to output the adjusted estimate for use in determining an amount of items that belong to the class.

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.

19. A method comprising:
-
providing a count estimate produced by a classifier of a number of items in a dataset classified into a class; using one or more measures of behavior of the classifier to indicate an ability of the classifier to classify the items into the class; computing, by a classification count adjustment computer system having a processor, an adjusted estimate based on the count estimate by the classifier and the one or more measures of behavior; and outputting the adjusted estimate for use in determining an amount of items that belong to the class. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)

35. A computer program embodied in a computer-readable storage medium, the computer program when executed to control a computer to:
-
obtain a count estimate by a classifier of a number of items in a dataset classified into a class; use one or more measures of behavior of the classifier to indicate an ability of the classifier to classify the items into the class; compute an adjusted estimate based on the count estimate by the classifier and the one or more measures of behavior; and output the adjusted estimate for use in determining an amount of items that belong to the class.
