Velilla Cerdan, SantiagoHernández, Adolfo2006-11-092006-11-092002-08http://hdl.handle.net/10016/182Strong consistency of linear discriminant analysis is established under wide assumptions on the class conditional densities. Robustness to the presence of a mild degree of class dispersion heterogeneity is also analyzed. Results obtained may help to explain analytically the frequent good behavior in applications of linear discrimination techniques.532662 bytesapplication/pdfengOn the consistency and robustness properties of linear discriminant analysisworking paperEstadÃsticaopen accessws023506
