Discrimination Rules
- Maximum likelihood: Assigns x to the group that maximizes population (group) density.
- Bayes Discriminant Rule: Assigns x to the group that maximizes, where represents the prior probability of that classification, and πi represents the population density.
- Fisher’s linear discriminant rule: Maximizes the ratio between SSbetween and SSwithin, and finds a linear combination of the predictors to predict group.

Famous quotes containing the word rules:
“Good discipline is more than just punishing or laying down the law. It is liking children and letting them see that they are liked. It is caring enough about them to provide good, clear rules for their protection.”
—Jeannette W. Galambos (20th century)
