Abstract

In this article we extend the global relevance learning vector quantization approach by local metric adaptation to obtain a locally optimized model for classification. In this sense we make a step in the direction of quadratic discriminance analysis in statistics where classwise variance matrices are used for class adapted discriminance functions. We demonstrateb the performance of the model for a medical application.
