Monitoring and controlling air quality parameters form an important subject of atmospheric and environmental research today due to the health impacts caused by the different pollutants present in the urban areas. The support vector machine (SVM), as a supervised learning analysis method, is considered an effective statistical tool for the prediction and analysis of air quality. The work present...

Data envelopment analysis technique which is developed based on the mathematical programming, evaluates the relative efficiency of a set of homogeneous decision making units. This paper shows the method of Discriminant Analysis (DA), on Imprecise Data by Data Envelopment 724 F. Hosseinzadeh Lotfi et al Analysis (DEA). DEA-Discriminant Analysis (DEA-DA) is designed to identify the existence or n...

Credit scoring is a kind of binary classification problem that contains important information for manager to make a decision in particularly in banking authorities. Obtained scores provide a practical credit decision for a loan officer to classify clients to reject or accept for payment loan. For this sake, in this paper a data envelopment analysis- discriminant analysis (DEA-DA) approach is us...

When the number of training samples is limited, feature reduction plays an important role in classification of hyperspectral images. In this paper, we propose a supervised feature extraction method based on discriminant analysis (DA) which uses the first principal component (PC1) to weight the scatter matrices. The proposed method, called DA-PC1, copes with the small sample size problem and has...

Discriminant analysis DA is used for the measurement of estimates of a discriminant function by minimizing their group misclassifications to predict group membership of newly sampled data. A major source of misclassification in DA is due to the overlapping of groups. The uncertainty in the input variables and model parameters needs to be properly characterized in decision making. This study com...

background celiac disease (cd) is a disorder associated with body reaction to gluten. after the gluten intake, an immune reaction against the protein occurs and damages villi of small intestine in celiac patients gradually. objectives the osc, a filtering method for minimization of inter- and intra-spectrometer variations that influence on data acquisition, was applied to biofluid nmr data of c...

Feature set dimensionality reduction via Discriminant Analysis (DA) is one of the most sought after approaches in many applications. In this paper, a novel nonlinear DA technique is presented based on a hybrid of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and the Uncorrelated Linear Discriminant Analysis (ULDA). Although dimensionality reduction via ULDA can present a set of statistically uncorrelated fe...

Data mining is a collection of analytical techniques used to uncover new trends and patterns in massive databases. These data mining techniques stress visualization to thoroughly study the structure of data and to check the validity of the statistical model fit which leads to proactive decision making. Discriminant analysis is one of the data mining techniques used to discriminate a single clas...
