A Complete Subspace Analysis of Linear Discriminant Analysis and Its Robust Implementation by Zhicheng Lu, Zhizheng Liang

“…Linear discriminant analysis has been widely studied in data mining and pattern recognition. However, when performing the eigen-decomposition on the matrix pair (within-class scatter matrix and between-class scatter matrix) in some cases, one can find that there exist some degenerated eigenvalues, thereby resulting in indistinguishability of information from the eigen-subspace corresponding to some degenerated eigenvalue. …”
