Course objectives
At the end of the course, students should be able to: - know fundamental theoretical and methodological principles of pattern analysis and recognition with emphasis to processing of medical and biological data;- choose and apply appropriatedata analysis method to obtain required results; - reduce and transform multivariate data using advances ordination methods; - classify data using various classification methods; - design modified algorithms to process data of given particular characteristics; - interpret obtained results including evaluation of classification performance.
Syllabus
  • 1. Multivariate data analysis and its aims. 2. Ordination methods – factor analysis (FA). 3. Ordination methods – canonical correspondence analysis (CCA), redundancy analysis (RDA). 4. Ordination methods – co-coordinate analysis. 5. Advanced method of feature extraction – independent component analysis (ICA) and other advanced methods. 6. Distance and similarity metrics. 7. Classification – introduction, discriminant analysis based on discriminant functions and minimal distance. 8. Classification – discriminant analysis based on boundaries: Fisher’s linear discriminant analysis. 9. Classification – discriminant analysis based on boundaries: linear support vector machines (SVM). 10. Classification – nonlinearSVM, sequential classification. 11. Evaluation of classification performance – cross-validation, comparison of classification results with random classification, comparison of classification performance of two or more classifiers. 12. Summary of methods for data analysis and classification.
