Résumé	Quadratic discriminant analysis is a generative classifier that models each class with its own multivariate Gaussian distribution, allowing each class a separate covariance matrix. Unlike linear discriminant analysis, which assumes a shared covariance and yields linear boundaries, QDA's per-class covariances produce curved (quadratic) decision boundaries, letting it capture differences in the spread and orientation of the classes.	Linear Discriminant Analysis is a supervised method for dimensionality reduction and classification, introduced by Ronald A. Fisher in 1936, that finds linear combinations of features which maximally separate predefined classes while preserving as much class-discriminatory information as possible. It simultaneously serves as a feature-projection technique and a probabilistic classifier, making it one of the foundational methods in pattern recognition and statistical learning.
