PNM: a program for parametric and nonparametric mapping of multidimensional data.
A program named PNM is presented for the mapping of multidimensional data within a two-class classification problem. A novel mapping method is used for the purpose. The computing procedure implemented in the program is described in detail. Definitions and examples of the control instructions of the program are given at length. An application of PNM for classifier design concerning differential diagnoses of the cerebrovascular accident is presented. It confirms the efficiency of the program in solving classification problems of relatively large size on a small computer.
