Scientific paper

In this paper, we present high-resolution optical spectra and optical classifications from our large sample of 285 warm infrared galaxies 108IR<1012.5L{sun}. We have classified these galaxies using new theoretical lines on the standard optical diagnostic diagrams. We use a theoretical extreme mixing line between the starburst and AGN regions to classify LINER galaxies and we define a theoretical boundary separating AGNs from starbursts. We find that many galaxies previously classified as LINERs appear to lie on a mixing sequence between starburst and AGN type galaxies.
