On Kernel Discriminant Analyses Applied to Phoneme Classification
In this paper we recall two kernel methods for discriminant analysis. The first one is the kernel counterpart of the ubiquitous Linear Discriminant Analysis (Kernel-LDA), while the second one is a method we named Kernel Springy Discriminant Analysis (Kernel-SDA). It seeks to separate classes just as Kernel-LDA does, but by means of defining attractive and repulsive forces. First we give technic...
متن کاملComparison of discriminant function and classification tree analyses for age classification of marmots
We evaluated the predictive power of two classification techniques, one parametric !/ discriminant function analysis (DFA) and the other non-parametric !/ classification and regression tree analysis (CART), in order to provide a non-subjective quantitative method of determining age class in Vancouver Island marmots (Marmota vancouverensis ) and hoary marmots (Marmota caligata ). For both techni...
متن کاملAssessing the reproducibility of discriminant function analyses
Data are the foundation of empirical research, yet all too often the datasets underlying published papers are unavailable, incorrect, or poorly curated. This is a serious issue, because future researchers are then unable to validate published results or reuse data to explore new ideas and hypotheses. Even if data files are securely stored and accessible, they must also be accompanied by accurat...
متن کاملDiscriminant Function Analyses of Liver-Specific Carcinogens
The ability to predict organ-specific carcinogenicity would aid FDA reviewers in evaluating new chemical applications. A NCTR liver cancer database (NCTRlcdb) containing 999 compounds has been developed with three sets of descriptors. The NCTRlcdb has Cerius2, Molconn-Z, and (13)C NMR descriptors for each compound. Each compound in the database was assigned a liver cancer or a nonliver cancer c...
متن کاملProtein Family Classification with Discriminant Function Analysis
Rapid progress in multiple genome projects continues to feed databases in the world a large volume of sequence data. In this 'post-genomic' era, more efficient and reliable sequence annotation, especially functional annotation of protein sequences, is crucial. Although experimental confirmation is ultimately required, computational annotation of protein sequences has been routinely done, and it...
