Robust logistic discriminant functions in diagnosing chronic obstructive airways disease.
The paper gives a comparison of the classical logistic discriminant function, the alpha-trimmed logistic discriminant function and the L1-logistic discriminant function as used for assistance of medical diagnosis in chronic obstructive airways disease. The robustified logistic discriminant functions enable one to obtain higher rates of correctly classified individuals, especially the L1-logistic discriminant function should be recommended.
