-- Unknown technical note number (sorry, not listed here)
-- General Results: nearest neighbor held its own with respect to the
rule-based system
4. Relevant Information:n
Vina conducted a comparison test of her rule-based system, BEAGLE, the
nearest-neighbor algorithm, and discriminant analysis. BEAGLE is
a product available through VRS Consulting, Inc.; 4676 Admiralty Way,
Suite 206; Marina Del Ray, CA 90292 (213) 827-7890 and FAX: -3189.
In determining whether the glass was a type of "float" glass or not,
the following results were obtained (# incorrect answers):
Type of Sample Beagle NN DA
Windows that were float processed (87) 10 12 21
Windows that were not: (76) 19 16 22
The study of classification of types of glass was motivated by
criminological investigation. At the scene of the crime, the glass left
can be used as evidence...if it is correctly identified!
