In this work, we propose a different approach to get a more reliable sample covariance matrix by adjusting the estimated eigenvalues. This procedure also brings us a non‐singular matrix as a by‐product. We improve the optimization procedure to obtain a linear classifier by incorporating the adjusted sample covariance matrix and a shrinkage mean vector into the original optimization problem. We have showed that our proposed binary classification rule is better than some other rules in terms of misclassification rule through most of various synthetic data and real data sets.14 pagesen-USThis item is likely protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
