QuadraticDiscriminantAnalysis Classification of photometry

Figure 9.5

The quadratic discriminant boundary for RR Lyrae stars (see caption of figure 9.3 for details). With all four colors, QuadraticDiscriminantAnalysis achieves a completeness of 0.788 and a contamination of 0.757.

Code output:

completeness [0.48175182 0.68613139 0.73722628 0.78832117]
contamination [0.85201794 0.79249448 0.77555556 0.75675676]
