Abstract
The ''no-free-lunch'' theorems (Wolpert & Macready, 1995) have sparked heated debate in the computational learning community. A recent communication (Zhu & Rohwer, 1996) attempts to demonstrate the inefficiency of cross-validation on a simple problem. We elaborate on this result by considering a broader class of cross-validation.
When used more strictly, cross-validation can yield the expected results on simple examples.
