In the field of Statistical Machine Learning the concept of shattering a set is an important one. For a collection of subsets <math>H<math> and a set <math>A<math> if <math>H<math> can obtain all possible subsets of <math>A<math> we say that <math>H<math> shatters <math>A<math>.
Definition
A set shatters <math>H<math> shatters <math>A<math> iff for all <math>B\subseteq A<math> there exists some <math>h\in H<math> such that <math>h\and A=\emptyset<math> i.e iff <math>\{B:B\subseteq A\} = \{A\and h:h\in H\}<math>
