✦ Synopsis


Summa y

Let populationZIi, i = 1,2, be characterized by a multivariate normal density function, N ( p i , Z i ) , i = 1.2, respectively. This paper providee conditions under which simple conditional error rates may be computed for the quadratic discriminant function with known population parametera. Alao, a simple bound on the overall e'rror rate is derived. Examplea are given which demonstrate the proposed methods.
