Your forensic laboratory came up with three new sets of features for discriminating between items in a population of interest: these three sets of features are called Set of Features 1, Set of Features 2 and Set of Features 3. The following table gives the probabilities of an item in the population of interest to fall into one of six categories if Set of Features 1 is used (column 1), if Set of Features 2 is used (column 2), and if Set of Features 3 is used (column 3): Categories Set of Features 1 Set of Features 2 0.01 0.01 0.05 0.02 0.01 0.90 A B E F 0.1667 0.0667 0.1000 0.4334 0.1667 0.0665 Your laboratory can only implement the use of one of these three sets in its new protocols. Which set of features do you choose to use and why? O Set of Features 1 because it has the highest discriminating power Set of Features 1 because it has the lowest discriminating power O Set of Features 2 because it has the highest discriminating power Set of Features 3 0.16 0.09 0.05 0.49 0.12 0.09 Set of Features 3 because it has the highest discriminating power O All of these sets of features have the same discriminating power so it doesn't matter which one I pick Your forensic laboratory came up with three new sets of features for discriminating between items in a population of interest: these three sets of features are called Set of Features 1, Set of Features 2 and Set of Features 3.
