pr_error

- compute the classification error for a one-dimensional classifier

SYNOPSIS

double pr_error (K, M, b)

ARGUMENTS

double K The covariance.
double M The mean.
double b The constant term.

RETURNS

If an error was detetected the function returns a -1.0, otherwise it returns the classification error made.

FUNCTION

The function computes the classification error of a one-dimensional classifier given by F(x) = x + b. The routine calculates the probability of a random pattern for which F(x) < 0 assuming a normal distribution.
