************************************************************************
This package contains all the programs necessary for the correct
application of certain LVQ (Learning Vector Quantization) algorithms
in an arbitrary statistical classification or pattern recognition
task. To this package four options for the algorithms, the
LVQ1, the LVQ2.1, the LVQ3 and the OLVQ1, have been selected.
In the implementation of the LVQ programs we have tried to use as
simple a code as possible. Therefore the programs are supposed to
compile in various machines without any specific modifications made on
the code. All programs have been written in ANSI C.
The lvq_pak program package includes the following files:
- Documentation:
README this file
lvq_doc.ps documentation in (c) PostScript format
lvq_doc.ps.Z same as above but compressed
lvq_doc.txt documentation in ASCII format
- Source file archives:
lvq_p3r1.exe Self-extracting MS-DOS archive file
lvq_pak-3.1.tar UNIX tape archive file
lvq_pak-3.1.tar.Z same as above but compressed
Installation in UNIX (in more detail, see lvq_doc.ps/txt):
- Uncompress lvq_pak-3.1.tar.Z
- Extract the files with "tar xovf lvq_pak-3.1.tar" which creates
the subdirectory lvq_pak-3.1
- Copy makefile.unix to the name makefile
- Revise switches in the makefile, if necessary
- Execute "make"
Installation in MS-DOS (in more detail, see lvq_doc.ps/txt):
- By executing the command lvq_p3r1 the self-extracting archive
creates the directory lvq_pak.3r1 and extracts all the files in it
- You are supposed to use Borland C++ Version 3.1 and to have
all the necessary environment settings
- Copy the file makefile.dos to the name makefile
- Revise the compiler switches in the makefile, if necessary
- Execute "make"
Revision history:
- Version 1.0 was released 19 December 1991.
- Version 1.1 containing only a minor bug fix in memory allocation
was released 31 December 1991.
- Version 2.0 containing major modifications in the algorithms was
released January 31, 1992.
- Version 2.1 containing some improvements in the speed of algorithms
and one new program was released October 9, 1992.
- Version 3.0 containing many advanced features conserning application
of the algorithms in large problems was released March 1, 1995; for
these changes see documentation.
- Version 3.1 containing only a bug fix in random ordering of data
was released 7 April 1995.
