Stepwise linear discriminant analysis to differentiate Spanish red wines by their Protected Designation of Origin or category using physico-chemical parameters

Assessment of Birjand flood plain water quality by physico-chemical parameters analysis in Iran

We assessed the physico-chemical status of twelve surface water samples from the Birjand flood plain (east of Iran) during fall 2010. The sampling points were selected on the basis of their importance. The physico-chemical parameters such as pH, temperature (T), electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), total hardness (TH), calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+ ), sodium (Na+), pota...

Protected Designation of Origin, Sustainable Development and International Trade: a Survey of DOC Wines from Emilia-Romagna

1. Sustainable development Today, the concept of sustainability significantly affects our life and economic activities. In 1987, the Bruntland Commission stated: “Humanity has the possibility of making development sustainable, i.e. ensuring that the needs of the present are met without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” (World Commission for environment and ...

Stepwise Nearest Neighbor Discriminant Analysis

Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is a popular feature extraction technique in statistical pattern recognition. However, it often suffers from the small sample size problem when dealing with the high dimensional data. Moreover, while LDA is guaranteed to find the best directions when each class has a Gaussian density with a common covariance matrix, it can fail if the class densities are more ...

A Multi Linear Discriminant Analysis Method Using a Subtraction Criteria

Linear dimension reduction has been used in different application such as image processing and pattern recognition. All these data folds the original data to vectors and project them to an small dimensions. But in some applications such we may face with data that are not vectors such as image data. Folding the multidimensional data to vectors causes curse of dimensionality and mixed the differe...
