Sammanfattning	Robust Discriminant Analysis is a classification method that separates groups with a linear discriminant function while resisting the influence of outliers. It replaces the classical mean and covariance with a high-breakdown estimator such as the Minimum Covariance Determinant (MCD), an approach developed by Hawkins & McLachlan (1997) and Croux & Dehon (2001).	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.
