Patent Searching and Data


Title:
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DISEASE DIAGNOSIS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005084279
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to improved systems and methods for distinguishing and classifying subjects based on analysis of biological materials. Methods for the analysis of multivariate data collected from a plurality of subjects of known class are provided. The results of such analyses include a set of intermediate combined classifiers as well as a metal variable that relates directly to the classes of the subjects in a training population. Both the intermediate combined classifiers and the final meta model are used to distinguish and classify subjects of previously unknown class.
