Abstract
The effectiveness of sufficient statistics as features in the detection/classification process is studied. The concept of a sufficient statistic is reviewed and an empirical method of developing an `apparent´ sufficient statistic from training data is offered. Examples of the performance enhancement achieved when using such statistics on real world data in both linear and neural network classifiers are given
