Abstract:
|
Dimension reduction in quadratic discriminant analysis has not received, so far, a universally accepted solution in the literature. Directions associated to several proposed kernel matrices are, typically, non interpretable, since they do not distinguish clearly between the location and dispersion separation. However, as it is commonly found in practice, the differences between the class mean vectors and covariance matrices can be usually explained by a population model in which the location and dispersion subspaces are perpendicular. An application of these ideas is presented in connection with the Swiss bank notes data of Flury and Riedwyl (1988).
