PCLDC

Linear classifier using PC expansion on the joint data.

    W = PCLDC(A,N)
    W = PCLDC(A,ALF)

Input
 A Dataset
 N Number of eigenvectors
 ALF Total explained variance (default: ALF = 0.9)

Output
 W Mapping

Description

Finds the linear discriminant function W for the dataset A computing the LDC on a projection of the data on the first N eigenvectors of the total dataset (Principle Component Analysis).

When ALF is supplied the number of eigenvalues is chosen such that at  least a part ALF of the total variance is explained.

If N (ALF) is NaN it is optimised by REGOPTC.
