my.iris {dprep} | R Documentation |
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. The Setosa class is linearly separable from the other two classes. The last two classes are NOT linearly separable from each other.
