When correct priors are known, Bayesian algorithms give optimal decisions, and accurate confidence values for predictions can be obtained. If the prior is incorrect however, these...

We present an algorithmic framework for supervised classification learning where the set of labels is organized in a predefined hierarchical structure. This structure is encoded b...
