Abstract

The problem of pattern recognition with the help of spherical and elliptic discriminant functions is studied; in so doing the pattern of an object is assumed to be a vector of its characters from a finite-dimensional Euclidean space. Using a conformal mapping of a punctured sphere onto the plane as well as the inversion transformation, a criterion for the error-free recognition of two sets containing a finite number of points of training samples is obtained with the help of spherical discriminant functions. An algorithm for solving approximately a problem of construction of an ellipsoid of the minimal volume containing a given finite set of points is described. Bibliography: 5 titles.
