Data visualisation methods include Multi Dimensional Scaling? (MDS), and plots showing the distribution of values for each parameter, broken down by class.

Data pre-processing includes normalisation of numeric values, and dimension reduction? using MDS.

Tree based methods, k-Nearest Neighbour? (KNN), Misc.Neural Network? and Misc.Support Vector Machine? (SVM) algorithms are available for classification/prediction with testing using Cross Validation and Monte Carlo methods for model validation. Classification models found by different algorithms may be combined for greater robustness and accuracy.
