A new multithreaded version of linear discriminant analysis is added to Sipina 3.11. Compared to the previous, it presents two assets: (1) it is able to use all the resources available on the machines with multi-core processors or multiprocessor; (2) the load balancing is better. It requires however more amount of memory, the internal structures of calculation are duplicated M times (M is the number of threads).
A tutorial will come to compare the behavior of this approach with the previous version and the single-threaded implementation.
