ML 6.3Lesson outlineLesson 3 of 3 in Module 6

Generative and Discriminative Models: LDA and QDA

Classify by modelling each class as a Gaussian, and see why shared or separate covariances give linear or curved boundaries.

Lesson outline: Generative and Discriminative Models: LDA and QDA

In this lesson12 parts

  1. 01A species from four measurements
  2. 02The Palmer penguins
  3. 03The most common species
  4. 04Model each species, then apply Bayes
  5. 05Means, covariances and priors
  6. 06Maximum likelihood again
  7. 07Fitting is averaging
  8. 08Scoring one penguin, and where the boundary bends
  9. 09Measuring it
  10. 10Fisher's projection, and Naive Bayes as the diagonal case
  11. 11What the parameters cost
  12. 12Code, the sealed birds, recap and bridge
