Review by Nguizani

This Slecture discussed the Upper bounds for Bayes error. Starting with an introduction in general Bayes’ Error formula and how it is derived. From the derivation of general Bayes’ Error Chernoff bound is then calculated. Subsequently from the Chernoff bound the Bhattcharyya Bound was explained.

The slecture had a very nice flow to it. The only part that would of needed a little bit more explanation is the discuss 1 part of the slecture. Seeing as the rest of the slecture is just derivation there should have been some kind of explanation to say that we are going to now look at the different cases of the Bhattcharyya Bound. Otherwise all the equations were very straight forward and the figures were very helpful! It actually helped me fix some code in my HW 2 thank you!
