Three criteria of intrinsically theoretical categories in biological system and classification of some medical plants

Abstract

In classical biology, different taxonomic categories are all decided based on empirical rules established on learning knowledge. In taxonomy, different classification systems are of diversified rules. One biology is often in different categories, although the concepts related to taxonomic categories are the same to each other. Whether there exist some absolute standards to classify biology, and to give unalterable results. This is of greatly scientific meaning. Common and variation, that is heredity and variation are the most elemental information in biology, and exist at multiply biology material levels. In this paper a generalized biological heredity and variation information theory was proposed based on previous works. Three typical heredity and variation models were analyzed by using this theory. They are unique asymmetric variation model, symmetric two variation model and extreme radial variation model. In the maximum information states, two biological constants Pg1 = 0.69 and Pg2=0.61 and a boundary similarity function were obtained. These Pg and Pg function can be defined as the three theoretically taxonomic category criteria of biological system. For 29 samples belonging to four kind plants, their chemical fingerprint-infrared (IR) fingerprint spectra (FPS) were analyzed depending on the theoretical criteria. The correct classification ratio was 96.6%. The results showed these samples could be ideally classified. A suggestion was proposed that biology should be absolutely classified relying on the three intrinsic theoretical criteria.
