Comment (by rcurtin):

 Hey Sumedh,

 Thanks for the contribution!  A couple questions:

  * Can you write a test to guarantee that GDA works?
  * How is GDA related to LDA and kernel LDA?  I think that GDA is kernel
 LDA with a Gaussian as the kernel.  If this is true, can we generalize
 your GDA implementation to be kernel LDA?  Then we can use the whole set
 of mlpack kernels that we already have.
