Hi,

I am not sure if I remember correctly a mail last week to this messageboard
where Prof Ripley said Fisher's discriminants are not used in lda within R
and that Rao's are used instead, is this true?  I looked in MASS (1996) but
I couldn't find the reference to this in chapter 12 (multivariate analysis),

Chapter 12 "Classification" in the 4th edition (2002) of MASS has a description and gives references.



the (help)lda doesn't tell me either.  Could anyone tell me where can I find
out this information as I am also interested in the method for qda?

See the recent edition of MASS for qda() as well.

Thanks

Anne
