Abstract:

Linear discriminant analysis(LDA) is one of the most classical and popular classification techniques. It is still widely used in modern statistical applications. We investigate high dimensional discriminant analysis for spatially correlated data in this paper. The estimation of covariance structure is important in discriminant analysis, especially for spatially correlated data. Penalized maximum likelihood estimation (PMLE) is developed for feature selection and parameter estimation. Tapering technique is applied to reduce computation load. Extensive simulation study shows a significant improvement in classification performance under spatial dependence.
