| double GetTestQuadraticLoss_bn ( | tester_bn* test, node_bn* node ) |
Returns the "quadratic loss" of node under the tests previously performed.
The "quadratic loss" (also known as "Brier score") is defined as: MOAC [1 - 2 * pc + sum[j=1 to n] (pj2)]
where MOAC stands for the mean (average) over all cases (i.e., all cases
for which the case file provides a value for the node in question),
where pc is the probability predicted for the state that turns out to be correct,
where pj is the probability predicted for state j, and
where n is the number of states of the node.
Values for quadratic loss vary from 0 to 2, with 0 being a perfect score.
node is required to have been in the test_nodes list originally passed to NewNetTester_bn.
