Inference for the Generalization Error

 Claude Nadeau and Yoshua Bengio
  
 

Abstract:
We perform a theoretical investigation of the variance of the cross-validation estimate of the generalization error that takes into account the variability due to the choice of training sets. This allows us to propose two new ways to estimate this variance. We show, via simulations, that these new statistics perform well relative to the statistics considered by Dietterich (1998).
