I'd like to start a collection of training sets for use with a rule induction
system.  The basic requirements are that a training set be composed of a
collection of observations, each of which consists of a *known* class
assignment, and a vector of observed features.  The features may be integer,
real or nominal (categorical) valued.

Ideally, I am looking for training sets which are drawn from a medical domain,
and have from 50-500 observations.  Real data is preferred, but simulated data
is ok too.  However, if the data is simulated, please supply the relevant
information needed to re-generate the data (program used, random number
generator used, random number seeds used, etc.).

If you have a training set, please contact stuart@ads.arpa.
