Abstract
One embodiment provides a method and system which facilitates optimizing a pair of affine classifiers based on a diversity metric. During operation, the system defines a diversity metric based on an angle between decision boundaries of a pair of affine classifiers. The system includes the diversity metric as a regularization term in a loss function optimization for designing the pair of affine classifiers, wherein the designed pair of affine classifiers are mutually orthogonal. The system predicts an outcome for a testing data object based on the designed pair of mutually orthogonal affine classifiers.
