Discrimination with Many Variables
多变量判别分析
Many statistical methods for discriminant analysis do not adapt well or easily to situations where the number of variables is large, possibly even exceeding the number of cases in the training set. We explore a variety of methods for providing robust identification of future samples in this situation. We develop a range of flexible Bayesian methods, and primarily a new hierarchical covariance compromise method, akin to regularized discriminant analysis. Although the methods…
