Abstract
This correspondence derives an upper bound on the probability of error of the
-class Bayes decision process when the patterns observed have first-order stochastic dependence. The bound is derived by applying an information-theoretic approach in which both the equivocation and the Bhattacharyya coefficient play a role.
