Abstract: Within the framework of Fisher's discriminant analysis, we propose a multiclass classification method which embeds variable screening for ultrahigh‐dimensional predictors. Leveraging interfeature correlations, we show that the proposed linear classifier recovers informative features with probability tending to one and can asymptotically achieve a zero misclassification rate. We evaluate the finite sample performance of the method via extensive simulations and use this method to classify posttransplantation rejection types based on patients' gene expressions.
