A common method of generalizing binary to multi-class classification is the error correcting code ECC ECCs may be optimized in a number of ways for instance by making them orthogonal Here we test two types of orthogonal ECCs on seven different datasets using three types of binary classifier and compare them with three other multi-class methods 1 versus 1 one-versus-the-rest and random ECCs The first type of orthogonal ECC in which the codes contain no zeros admits a fast and simple method of solving for the probabilities Orthogonal ECCs are always more accurate than random ECCs as predicted by recent literature Improvments in uncertainty coefficient U C range between 0 4 and 17 5 0 004 0 139 absolute while improvements in Brier score between 0 7 and 10 7 Unfortunately orthogonal ECCs are rarely more accurate than 1 versus 1 Disparities are worst when the methods are paired with logistic regression with orthogonal ECCs never beating 1 versus 1 When the methods are paired with SVM the losses are less significant peaking at 1 5 relative 0 011 absolute in uncertainty coefficient and 6 5 in Brier scores Orthogonal ECCs are always the fastest of the five multi-class methods when paired with linear classifiers When paired with a piecewise linear classifier whose classification speed does not depend on the number of training samples classifications using orthogonal ECCs were always more accurate than the other methods and also faster than 1 versus 1 Losses against 1 versus 1 here were higher peaking at 1 9 0 017 absolute in U C and 39 in Brier score Gains in speed ranged between 1 1 and over 100 Whether the speed increase is worth the penalty in accuracy will depend on the application
