how to test if Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) I implemented works?

255 Views Asked by At

I have implemented Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) in C by referring various sources. Now, I would like to test the system with a simple configuration. How can I do that? I work on a speech recognition system and I get good results with the help of LDA (I use it for dimensionality reduction. I reduce vectors with dimension of approx. 90 to dimension of 18 using LDA). But I don't know how to quantify performance of my LDA.
