Hey User, I have trouble by understanding the Matlab example for the Linear Diskriminant analysis. Matlab is using the example of R. A. Fisher, which is great I think.
But: How could I calculate the discriminant function which we can find in the original paper of R. A. Fisher? In his paper he has calculated the following linear equation:
X = x1+5,9037x2 -7,1299x3 - 10,1036x4
The paper of R.A.Fisher can be find as a pdf here: http://rcs.chph.ras.ru/Tutorials/classification/Fisher.pdf
I'm using the following code in Matlab 2013:
load fisheriris;
obj = ClassificationDiscriminant.fit(meas,species);
The example can be find under the link:
Does that function not calculate the coefficient and the discriminant analysis? If somebody could help me, it would be great. Many thanks in advance!
All the best. Grünschnabel
