Discriminant analysis of directional data

J. E. MORRIS and P. J. LAYCOCK

Department of Mathematics, University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology

Expressions are obtained for discriminant statistics when sampling from circular and spherical normal distributions. Some moments and sampling distributions are obtained for these statistics. Also some expressions for the theoretical error probabilities are evaluated.

Key Words: Circular distribution • Discriminant analysis • Error probabilities • Moments • Spherical distribution
