Cross-validated PLS-DA modeling statistics for the prediction performance for species discrimination between <i>M</i>. <i>pneumoniae</i> and nine other human commensal and pathogenic mycoplasma species individually.

For species discrimination, three categories were incorporated to cross-validate the model: either category 1: growth medium control (GMC); category 2: M. pneumoniae (M129); or category 3: other mycoplasma species in question. Eight spectra from each category were of known class and two spectra from each category were treated as unknowns to generate a cross-validated prediction model. Cross-validated sensitivity, specificity, and class error were based on the classification prediction score for each category.
