Abstract

At the seminar in which the paper was discussed, this writer sided with what appeared to be the consensus (although not unanimous) : that the coefficient of variation is a good measure of the efficiency of a classification system. He did, however, mention certain reservations with which he believes the author of that excellent little paper to be in agreement.
