Asymptotic Properties of Conjugate Bayes Discrete Discrimination

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1993, vol. 46, issue 1, 83-96

Abstract: This paper studies a problem of discrimination between two populations with binary variables. The number of variables which can be observed is allowed to tend to infinity. Assuming the Dirichlet process prior, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for asymptotically perfect discrimination between the two populations.
