The summer before the book's publication, Little, Brown sent promotional materials — an excerpt of the King Alfred Plan alongside details of the book's publication, all in a manila folder labelled "CLASSIFICATION: TOP SECRET" — to two thousand booksellers and jobbers.
In its set of recommendations, the board suggests that the three current levels of classification – top secret, secret and confidential – should be simplified into two, that official documents relating to time-specific events should be released to the public as soon as the event is over, and that the system should be modernised to exploit new digital technologies.
The board recommended that the current classifications of top secret, secret and confidential be cut to two categories and that supervisors be encouraged to assume "good faith" on the part of classifiers who, after weighing a document's relative values, conclude no secret is at stake.
However, for the USNVC classification, in contrast with the other classifications, the top three most important variables for predicting the USNVC were all regional climate variables, and specifically, the mean temperature of the coldest month, the precipitation of the warmest quarter, and precipitation seasonality were the most important.

This is directly shown by the process classification on top (in the example: 'control system' as well as stimulatory nodes are specifically listed).
Based on the significant results we obtained, we further selected a small subset of features with gene classification, where top features ranked by their significance (according to the tests described in the previous section) were treated as predictors in a naïve Bayes (NB) classifier and ES-up and ES-down genes as two classes (see Methods).
We adopted an extension of a rank-based approach to classification called "top-scoring pairs" (TSP) for developing understandable and powerful genomic signatures.
(b) The window length of 9 bases yields 5 top classifications; the window length of 15 bases yields 4 top classifications; and for window length equals to 24 bases, 3 top classifications are obtained.
(b) The window length of 9 bases yields 7 top classifications; the window length of 15 bases yields 2 top classifications; and for the window length equals to the sequence length, 4 top classifications are obtained.
