Abstract: | An iterative method of adaptive pattern recognition is used to allocate unclassified individuals to an a priori classification. The model is similar in form to a linear discriminant function, but the coefficient vector is determined by iteration. The method can be used with binary data, and with variables whose statistical distributions are not normal; it is therefore a useful technique for geologists. |
