dc.description.abstract	<p> Application of four statistical techniques of discrimination is made to a set of multivariate data. The techniques, proposed by R.A . Fisher [6], C.R. Rao Q4] , D.F. Andrews [l] and H. Chernoff [4], are reviewed, applied and criticized in an intercomparison of the four methods. Graphic illustrations are also utilized to aid in the classification of sampling units. </p>	en_US
