What is LDA

Handbook of Research on Computational Forensics, Digital Crime, and Investigation: Methods and Solutions
LDA stands for Linear Discrimant Analysis. Also known as Fisher Discriminant Analysis (FDA) or Fisher Linear Discrimant (FLD). This is popular in face recognition method of dimensionality reduction that search for vectors that best discriminate among classes.

Abstract
The aim of this chapter is the overall and comprehensive description of the machine face processing issue and presentation of its usefulness in security and forensic applications. The chapter overviews the methods of face processing as the field deriving from various disciplines. After a brief introduction to the field, the conclusions concerning human processing of faces that have been drawn by the psychology researchers and neuroscientists are described. Then the most important tasks related to the computer facial processing are shown: face detection, face recognition and processing of facial features, and the main strategies as well as the methods applied in the related fields are presented. Finally, the applications of digital biometrical processing of human faces are presented.
