What is the name for this classification algorithm?
Can you help me find the name of this classification algorithm :
Assume we have data:
$n$ dimensional feature vectors we want to classify in two classes.
We model the classes as two $n$ dimensional gaussian distributions estimated from the data.
We classify a new vector to the class that maximizes the PDF(probability density function) at that point.

Probably Quadratic Discriminant Analysis.
There are also names for different constraints you could make:
Covariance matrices of both classes are equal - Linear Discriminant Analysis.
Only diagonal elements of the covariance matrix are non-zero - Naive Bayes Classifier
Covariance matrix is identity (diagonals = 1, non-diagonals = 0) - Nearest Centroid Classifier
