Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a new feature extraction method. Our method is an extension of the classical Partial Least Squares (PLS) algorithm. However, a new weighted separation criterion is applied which is based on the within and between scatter matrices. In order to compare the performance of the classification the economical datasets are used.
