  Higgs decay branching ratios at future Higgs factories can be measured by
directly exploiting class numeration. Given the clean environment at a lepton
collider, it is possible to build an event sample highly enriched in Higgs
bosons and essentially unbiased for any decay mode. The sample can be
partitioned into categories using event properties linked to the expected Higgs
decay modes. The counts per category are used to fit the Higgs branching ratios
in a model independent way. The result of the fit is the set of branching
ratios, independent from a Higgs production mode measurement.
  We present a simplified study on simulated data for the International Linear
Detector (ILD) at the International Linear Collider (ILC) at 250 GeV
center-of-mass energy.
