Abstract
A method called Regression Discrimination Analysis (RDA) has been developed for the discrimination of ordered categorical data. The method (RDA method) has the advantages of simultaneously considering any numbers of classes and faster computation than other methods. However, the RDA method is not utilized because the RDA method is inferior in recognition and prediction. The RDA method has two problems. First, although the RDA method needs parameters called class values, the class values are not specified. For this reason, the most adequate class values have to be determined for each time. Secondly, the borders of the RDA method are also not specified. The change of the borders has great influence on the result of discrimination. In this study, we suggest the optimized class values which are determined by searching for the normality in the data belonging each class value. We have refined the RDA method to some extent in this study.
