%AUCLPC Area Under the Curce Linear Programming Classifier
%
% [W,R] = AUCLPC(A,C,rtype, par, unitnorm, usematlab)
%
%   A  Dataset
%   C  Trade off parameter, default C = 10
%   W  Linear Classifier
%   R  Indices of support objects
%
% For other parameters see AUCLPM.
% The classifier optimizes the AUC for two-class problems using AUCLPM.
% The best threshold for the training set A is found using
% the class priors. Multi-class problems are solved using the
% one-against-rest scheme of MCLASSC (MODE = 'single').
