Abstract The paper presents an application of L1‐logistic discriminant functions to the support of medical diagnosis in so called chronic airways disease which includes bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis and lung ephysema. It is shown that the L1‐logistic discriminant function is more robust than the classical logistic function and gives higher rate of correctly classified individuals.
