Paneth cell identification in the small intestine of guinea pig offsprings (Cavia porcellus).

The aim of this study was to determine the presence, number, and morphometrical characteristics of Paneth cells (PC) in the small intestine of guinea pigs during lactation. We used 48 pups from 0 to 15 days old. Samples from small intestine were fixed in 10% buffered formaldehyde (pH 7.

Establishment of multivariate specifications for food commodities with discriminant partial least squares.

A novel method for establishing multivariate specifications of food commodities is proposed. The specifications are established for discriminant partial least squares (DPLS) by setting limits on the predictions of the DPLS model together with Hotelling T(2) and square error of prediction (SPE). These limits can be tuned depending on whether type I error (i.

Multi-class classification with probabilistic discriminant partial least squares (p-DPLS).

This work describes multi-classification based on binary probabilistic discriminant partial least squares (p-DPLS) models, developed with the strategy one-against-one and the principle of winner-takes-all. The multi-classification problem is split into binary classification problems with p-DPLS models. The results of these models are combined to obtain the final classification result.
