The location linear discriminant for classifying observations with unequal variances

Author

  • Leung, Chi-Ying

Abstract

The location linear discriminant adjusted for unequal conditional dispersion matrices in different locations is derived. Distribution of the studentized plug-in discriminant is expanded up to the second order. The method leads to an expansion for the probability of misclassification.
