Figure 3. RMS classification of the testing tumors: sporadic and post-Chernobyl papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Figure 3

Testing tumors (sporadic PTCs, PTC18, PTC19 and PTC25 and post-Chernobyl PTC, S404) (dot) classification considering all eigenvectors (validation space) in the RMS computation. Scatter plot of RMSsporadic matrix as a function of the RMSchernobyl matrix for the learning tumors and the RMSsporadic class as a function of the RMSchernobyl class of the considered testing tumor. The RMS values of the training tumors fall into two distinct groups (sporadic PTC, triangle and post-Chernobyl PTC, square). A, B, C: examples of correctly classified tumors, PTC25, S404 and PTC19, respectively. D: outlier classification of the PTC18 tumor.
