Description

This package performs linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and diagonal discriminant analysis (DDA) with variable selection using correlation-adjusted t (CAT) scores.

The classifier is trained using James-Stein-type shrinkage estimators. Variable selection is based on ranking predictors by CAT scores (LDA) or t-scores (DDA). A cutoff is chosen by false non-discovery rate (FNDR) or higher criticism (HC) thresholding.

This approach is particularly suited for high-dimensional classification with correlation among predictors. For details see Zuber and Strimmer (2009) and Ahdesm\"aki and Strimmer (2010).

Typically the functions in this package are applied in three steps:

The accompanying web site (see below) provides example R scripts to illustrate the functionality of this package.
