Discriminant Analysis Based on Binary and Continuous Variables
基于二元与连续变量的判别分析
An observation consisting of both binary and continuous variables may be classified into one of two populations by the double-discriminant function based on the point-biserial model. When the parameters are unknown or partially known, a sample double-discriminant function is obtained by replacing the unknown parameters by their sample estimates. A sampling scheme referred to as the double inverse sampling is proposed to ensure nonsingularity of the sample covariance…
