The famous Iris database, first used by Sir R.A Fisher
|
|
|
|
This is perhaps the best known database to be found in the
|
|
pattern recognition literature. Fisher's paper is a classic in the field and
|
|
is referenced frequently to this day. (See Duda & Hart, for example.) The
|
|
data set contains 3 classes of 50 instances each, where each class refers to a
|
|
type of iris plant. One class is linearly separable from the other 2; the
|
|
latter are NOT linearly separable from each other.
