%DUALDIAG Simultaneous diagonalisation of two hermitian matrices [A,D]=(W,B) 
% Given two hermitian matrices W and B with W positive definite, this routine 
% calculates A such that A'*W*A=I and A'*B*A=diag(D). The D will be in descending order. 
% 
% Suppose we have several N-dimensional data row-vectors arising from each of C different classes of data. 
% for each class, c, we can form the mean data vector m(c) and the within-class covariance matrix W(c) 
% We can then form the between class covariance matrix B by taking the covariance of the mean vectors m(1), m(2), ... 
% and also the averaged within-class covariance matrix W by averaging W(1), W(2), ... 
% If we then take A=dualdiag(W,B) and postmultiply all our original data vectors by A, we obtain new 
% data vectors for which the average within-class covariance matrix is the identity and for which 
% the first few components contain most of the information that is useful in discriminating between classes. 
 
% An alternative algorithm that is 20% faster but slightly less accurate is: 
% n=size(w,1); 
% [v,l]=eig(w\b); 
% [s,i]=sort(-diag(l)); 
% s=-s; 
% d=l(i*(n+1)-n); 
% q=sqrt(diag(v'*w*v))'.^(-1); 
% a=v(:,i).*q(ones(n,1),i);
