Using the Method of Principal Components and Discriminant Analysis with Aim of Simplifying the Selection of Analogue Object for New Area

Abstract

The article discusses the main geo-physical parameters from 66 development objects. This data is analyzed using component and discriminant analysis methods. Using the principal component method, relatively homogeneous analog groups are distinguished, and discriminant analysis is used to derive the discriminant function and its constants. Based on the values of this function and constants, the new development object is assigned to the analog group.
