Abstract
A technique for accepting or rejecting the output of a Bayesian classifier is presented based on a metalevel Bayesian classifier using features of the probability distribution over the known classes calculated by the lower-level (object-level) classifier. The value of adding the metalevel classifier is determined by user utilities for the possible outcomes of the two-level process.
