It seems as far the simpler linear programming gives a better result. More exploration need to be done.•BP is not very good at dealing with non-separable data.•SVM is a good candidate, but takes a long time to train.•LVQ is comparable with SVM.•An question remain to be answered, why the maximum likelihood method give the same result as the
