The inputs of the twonorm problem are points from two Gaussian distributions with unit covariance matrix. Class 1 is multivariate normal with mean \((a,a,\ldots,a)\) and class 2 with mean \((-a,-a,\ldots,-a)\), \(a=2/d^{0.5}\).

Usage

mlbench.twonorm(n, d=20)

Value

Returns an object of class "mlbench.twonorm" with components

x
