This experiment investigates the scenario where the two moons in Fig. 1.8 overlap and are therefore nonseparable.
(a) Repeat the second part of the experiment in Fig. 6.7, for which the vertical separation between the two moons was fixed at d = -6.5. Experimentally, determine the value of parameter C for which the classification error rate is reduced to a minimum.
(b) Reduce the vertical separation between the two moons further by setting d = -6.75, for which the classification error rate is expected to be higher than that for d = -6.5. Experimentally, determine the value of parameter C for which the error rate is reduced to a minimum.
Comment on the results obtained for both parts of the experiment.
