Error Correcting Output Codes reveal an efficient strategy in dealing with multi-class classification problems. According to this technique, a multi-class problem is decomposed into several binary ones. On these created sub-problems we apply binary classifiers and then, by combining the acquired solutions, we are able to solve the initial multiclass problem. In this paper we consider the optimi...
