Confidence Interval Example Data: acc=80% => err=20%=0.2 ; const=1.96 (95%) ; n=100 Rule: " err +/- const sqrt( (err (1 - err)) / n) " Application: " 0.2 +/- 1.96 sqrt( (0.2 (1 - 0.2)) / 100) " ......................... " = 0.2 +/- 1.96 sqrt(0.16 / 100) " ......................... " = 0.2 +/- 1.96 0.04 " ......................... " = 0.2 +/- 0.0784 " Results: " err=[ 0.2784 : 0.1216 ] => acc=[0.7216 : 0.8784] => [ 72.16% : 87.84% ] => [ 72% : 88% ] to be more precise! "
