We consider pattern classification methods based on the iterative use of linear classifiers. The resulting classifiers, called threshold decision lists, act as follows. Some points of the data set to be classified are given a particular classification according to a linear threshold function (or hyperplane). These are then removed from consideration, and the procedure is iterated until all points are classified.
