Why? It seems to me that estimating the confidence of a prediction by the quality of measurements is not an infrequent machine learning task. It'd be more complex for a driving algorithm than calculating the confidence interval of a linear regression, but it's in the same theme.
- Retra 8y agoA computer can predict with 100% confidence if you give it few enough measurements. That doesn't mean it will make the correct decisions. You have to already know you're measuring the right things.
- xapata 8y agoIf you don't want it to do that, don't program it that way. Code it to assume some and to estimate the degree of mismeasurement.
