stat.diag.da: Diagonal Discriminant Analysis

In gnyamundanda/sma: Statistical Microarray Analysis

Description

This function implements a simple Gaussian maximum likelihood discriminant rule, for diagonal class covariance matrices.

Usage

stat.diag.da(ls, cll, ts, pool=1)

Arguments

ls	learning set data matrix, with rows corresponding to cases (i.e., mRNA samples) and columns to predictor variables (i.e., genes).
cll	class labels for learning set, must be consecutive integers.
ts	test set data matrix, with rows corresponding to cases and columns to predictor variables.
pool	logical flag. If pool=1, the covariance matrices are assumed to be constant across classes and the discriminant rule is linear in the data. If pool=0, the covariance matrices may vary across classes and the discriminant rule is quadratic in the data.

Value

List containing the following components

pred	vector of class predictions for the test set.
