Abstract
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a method to configure a network of classifiers includes configuring a plurality of classifiers in a network of classifiers, such that the configuring associates a plurality of operating points with each output branch, associating a different quality profile with each output point for each output branch in the plurality of classifiers, and storing the configured network of classifiers and quality profile associations in the computer system to be used for classifying future input data according to the network configuration and quality profile association. Each classifier comprises executable code that classifies the data. Each of said classifiers has a plurality of the output branches that each output the data to another classifier. Each operating point comprises a probability of determining that a data item input to the classifier has a particular characteristic and a probability that said determination falsely detected the characteristic.
