Left: Unsupervised NMF can totally separate the carnivores (blue) from the other three types of animals. The foregut-fermenting herbivores (red), the hindgut-fermenting herbivores (green) and Omnivores (yellow) are largely separated with a few mixed. Right: supervised NMF for separation of the carnivores from the herbivores. Both training carnivores (dark blue) and testing carnivores (light blue) are easily separated from the herbivores. The model was not trained to separate two types of herbivores, but a good degree of separation is shown for the foregut-fermenting herbivores (dark red for training and light red for testing cases) and the hindgut-fermenting herbivores (dark green for training and light green for testing cases). a A SimplePlot for unsupervised NMF, b A SimplePlot for supervised NMF
