A new classification method for functional data is proposed in this article. This work motivated by the need to identify features that discriminate between neurological conditions on which local field potentials (LFPs) were recorded. Regardless of condition, these LFPs have zero mean, and thus first moments random processes do not discriminating power. We propose variation pattern (VPC) employs...

We develop a method for recognizing the emotional state of a person who is deliberately expressing one of eight emotions. Four physiological signals were measured and six features of each of these signals were extracted. We investigated three methods for the recognition: (1) Sequential floating forward search (SFFS) feature selection with K-nearest neighbors classification, (2) Fisher projectio...
