Description

We have linear regression but from what I can see we don't have linear discriminant analysis which is the equivalent algorithm for classification. We even have the iris dataset which was created to demonstrate LDA. And then a popular extension to LDA to PLDA which I've attached a TDS link for

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing linear regression implementation and the iris dataset support in the repository, then compare the requested LDA and PLDA scope with the linked references. Confirm the expected API and demonstration or test coverage before proceeding; done means the requested classification algorithms are integrated and their behavior is exercised on the iris dataset.
