When the __________________________________ transformation is applied to a Gaussian distribution, the covariance matrix becomes an identity matrix.

Which type of pattern recognition technique describe patterns using deterministic grammars or formal languages?

A classifier that is made up of linear discriminant functions is called a _______________________________.
