Abstract

The program DISBAR is particularly adapted to medical data which often concern several measurements of different types (mixed variables) collected on patients divided into 2 groups according to a binary response variable such as survival or non-survival. DISBAR leads to a simple geometrical representation of the observations providing an easy allocation rule for a new case. The computer time required to run the program DISBAR is negligible in comparison with the one necessary to perform any other discriminant analysis on binary variables. DISBAR combines in practice computational facility with good results and easy interpretation.
