 Cross validation (CV) is a general tool for comparing statistical learning 
  
procedures. Shao (1997) discovered the surprising fact that for comparing 
  
linear regression models, the size of the evaluation part in the data 
  
splitting has to be dominating in order for CV to choose the true model 
  
consistently. What happens when we compare two general learning procedures 
  
(e.g., one parametric and one nonparametric, or two nonparametric 
  
procedures)? We show that the situation can be completely different. We give 
  
sufficient conditions to sure consistency in selection in the contexts of 
  
regression and classification.
