Each within-class density of X is a mixture of two normal distributions:
Class 1 (red): 0.6N(-2, ¼ ) + 0.4N(0, 1).
Class 2 (blue): 0.6N(0, 4 ) + 0.4N(2, 1).
(a) Describe the classifier obtained by LDA when the number of samples/observations goes
to infinity. Justify your answer.
(b) Assume instead that the prior of class 1 is twice of that the prior of class 2. Describe the
classifier obtained by LDA, when the number of samples/observations goes to infinity.
Justify your answer.
