Unequal class models

KNN)13 14 and potential function methods (PFMs).15,16 Modeling methods establish volumes in the pattern space with different bounds for each class. The bounds can be based on correlation coefficients, distances (e.g. the Euclidian distance in the Pattern Recognition by Independent Multicategory Analysis methods [PRIMA]17 or the Mahalanobis distance in the Unequal [UNEQ] method18), the residual variance19,20 or supervised artificial neural networks (e.g. in the Multi-layer Perception21).
