Figure 5 reports the quantile-quantile plots of ordered q-values against ordered posterior classification probabilities.
This decreasing order classification allows for easy identification of all the physical modes.
The explanatory variables include the soil order classification, texture, and parsed information from the S-map functional horizon description.
It is recommended that any new, higher-order classification schemes highlight the differences in branching architecture as a way of recognizing clades within the Ediacara biota.
Hack and Goodlett (1960) used a spatial subdivision of headwater systems into four topographic units: (1) hillslopes; (2) zero-order catchments; (3) ephemeral channels emerging from zero-order catchments; and (4) first- and second channels depending on the linkage between hillslopes and channels, and the stream order classification.
The pattern of interaction among drought, flooding, nitrogen stress, plant density, and plant disease susceptibility might allow higher-order classification of stress response networks that would support intensive investigation of specific examples and then generalization across similar network types.
Our proposed two-step framework includes (1) attribute filtering using Naïve Bayes (NB) to extract the most informative features and thus greatly reduce the number of data dimensions and (2) the subsequent higher order classification using Hidden Naïve Bayes (HNB).
Conservation of function can be accompanied by obvious similarity of homologous sequences which may persist for billions of years (Iyer LM, Leipe DD, Koonin EV, Aravind L. 2004. Evolutionary history and higher order classification of AAA+ ATPases. J Struct Biol. 146:1463146
Bergman et al. [ 2003] used a variant of this design to show that these baboons simultaneously classify group mates by social rank and by affiliation to a matriline, a form of higher order classification that up to that point had been viewed as uniquely human.
