Supporting Software

The KDE lies at the heart of a classification. In addition, a suite of supporting programs has been integrated into a comprehensive software system to provide:

  • data alignment
  • data smoothing or interpolation
  • background subtraction
  • a choice of methods for normalization and clustering
  • cross-validation and bootstrapping methodologies to minimize the effects of sample bias
  • statistical analysis of input data and results
  • statistical analysis of sample size
  • visualization tools
  • options to compare KDE classification to more traditional classifiers such as kNN and PCA
  • the combination of models into Bayesian or neural nets
