%       -- Results:
%          -- very low misclassification rates (0% for the setosa class)

%       -- Results:
%          -- very low misclassification rates again
%    5. See also: 1988 MLC Proceedings, 54-64.  Cheeseman et al's AUTOCLASS II
%       conceptual clustering system finds 3 classes in the data.
% 
% 4. Relevant Information:
%    --- This is perhaps the best known database to be found in the pattern
%        recognition literature.  Fisher's paper is a classic in the field
%        and is referenced frequently to this day.  (See Duda & Hart, for
%        example.)  The data set contains 3 classes of 50 instances each,
%        where each class refers to a type of iris plant.  One class is
%        linearly separable from the other 2; the latter are NOT linearly
%        separable from each other.
%    --- Predicted attribute: class of iris plant.
%    --- This is an exceedingly simple domain.
% 
% 5. Number of Instances: 150 (50 in each of three classes)
% 
% 6. Number of Attributes: 4 numeric, predictive attributes and the class
% 
% 7. Attribute Information:
%    1. sepal length in cm
%    2. sepal width in cm
%    3. petal length in cm
%    4. petal width in cm
%    5. class: 
%       -- Iris Setosa
%       -- Iris Versicolour
%       -- Iris Virginica
% 
% 8. Missing Attribute Values: None
% 
% Summary Statistics:

%    sepal length: 4.3  7.9   5.84  0.83    0.7826   
%     sepal width: 2.0  4.4   3.05  0.43   -0.4194
%    petal length: 1.0  6.9   3.76  1.76    0.9490  (high!)
