Description

Wine recognition data. These data are the results of a chemical analysis of wines grown in the same region in Italy but derived from three different cultivars. The analysis determined the quantities of 13 constituents found in each of the three types of wines.

Usage

Format

A data frame with 178 observations on the following 14 variables.

  1. Type: The type of wine, into one of three classes, 1 (59 obs), 2(71 obs), and 3 (48 obs).

  2. Alcohol

  3. Malic acid

  4. Ash

  5. Alcalinity of ash

  6. Magnesium

  7. Total phenols

  8. Flavanoids

  9. Nonflavanoid phenols

  10. Proanthocyanins

  11. Color intensity

  12. Hue

  13. Dilution: D280/OD315 of diluted wines

  14. Proline

Details

In a classification context, this is a well posed problem with "well behaved" class structures. A good data set for first testing of a new classifier, but not very challenging.

I think that the initial data set had around 30 variables, but for some reason I only have the 13 dimensional version. I had a list of what the 30 or so variables were, but a.) I lost it, and b.), I would not know which 13 variables are included in the set.

The data was used with many others for comparing various classifiers. The classes are separable, though only RDA has achieved 100 (RDA : 100 (All results using the leave-one-out technique)

Here, the data was used to illustrate the superior performance of the use of a new appreciation function with RDA.
