%% GANDERS is implementation of the general algorithm framework that finds %   optimal solution of the Generalized Anderson's task (GAT). %%   The GAT solves problem of finding a separationg hyperplane %   (alpha'*x = theta) between two classes such that found solution minimizes %   the probability of bad classification. Both classes are described in term %   of the conditional probability density functions p(x|k), where x is %   observation and k is class label (1 for the first and 2 for the second %   class). The p(x|k) for both the classes has normal distribution but its %   genuine parameters are not know only finite set of possible parameters %   is known. %%   The algorithms works iteratively until the change of the solution quality %   in two consequential steps is less then given limit rdelta %   (radius of the smallest ellipsoid) or until the number of steps, %   the algorithm performed, exceeds given limit tmax.%% Input:% (K is number of input parameters, N is dimension of feature space.)%% GANDERS(MI,SIGMA,J,tmax,rdelta)%   MI [NxK] contains K column vectors of mean values MI=[mi_1,mi_2...mi_K],%      where mi_i is i-th column vector N-by-1. %   SIGMA [N,(K*N)] contains K covariance matrices,%      SIGMA=[sigma_1,sigma_2,...sigma_K], where sigma_i is i-th matrix N-by-N.
%   J [1xK] is vector of class labels J=[label_1,label_2,..,class_K], where
%      label_i is an integer 1 or 2 according to which class the pair 
%      {mi_i,sigma_i} describes.
%   tmax [1x1] is maximal number of steps of algorithm. Default is inf 
%      (it exclude this stop condition).
%   rdelta [1x1] is positive real number (including 0 that exclude this 
%      stop condition) which determines stop condition - it works until
%      the change of solution quality (radius of the smallest ellipsoid)
%      is less than rdelta the algorithm exits.
%
% GANDERS(MI,SIGMA,J,tmax,rdelta,t,alpha,theta) begins from state given by
%   t [1x1] begin step number.
%   alpha [Nx1], theta [1x1] are state variables of the algorithm.
%
% Returns:
%   alpha [Nx1] is normal vector of found separating hyperplane.
%   theta [1x1] is threshold of separating hyperplane (alpha'*x=theta).
%   solution [1x1] is equal to -1 if solution does not exist,
%      is equal to 0 if solution is not found,
%      is equal to 1 if is found.
%   minr [1x1] is radius of the smallest ellipsoid correseponding to the %      quality of found solution.%   t [1x1] is number of steps the algorithm performed.%   maxerr [1x1] is upper bound of probabillity of bad classification.%% See also OANDERS, EANDERS, GGANDERS, GANDERS2%% Statistical Pattern Recognition Toolbox, Vojtech Franc, Vaclav Hlavac% (c) Czech Technical University Prague, http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz% Written Vojtech Franc (diploma thesis) 24.10.1999, 6.5.2000% Modifications% 30-August-2001, V.Franc, mistake repared, dalpha = dalpha/norm(dalpha) removed% 24. 6.00 V.
