Iris flower data set
The Iris flower data set or Fisher's Iris data set is a multivariate data set introduced by Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher (1936) as an example of discriminant analysis.[1] It is sometimes called Anderson's Iris data set because Edgar Anderson collected the data to quantify the geographic variation of Iris flowers in the Gaspe peninsula.[2]
The dataset consists of 50 samples from each of three species of Iris flowers (I. setosa, I. virginica and I. versicolor). Four features were measured from each sample, they are the length and the width of sepal and petal. Based on the combination of the four features, Fisher developed a linear discriminant model to determine which species they are.
