    Parameters
    ----------
    solver : {'svd', 'eigen'}, default='svd'
        Solver to use, possible values:
          - 'svd': Singular value decomposition (default).
            Does not compute the covariance matrix, therefore this solver is
            recommended for data with a large number of features.
          - 'eigen': Eigenvalue decomposition.
            Can be combined with shrinkage or custom covariance estimator.

    shrinkage : 'auto' or float, default=None
        Shrinkage parameter, possible values:
          - None: no shrinkage (default).
          - 'auto': automatic shrinkage using the Ledoit-Wolf lemma.
          - float between 0 and 1: fixed shrinkage parameter.

        This should be left to None if `covariance_estimator` is used.
        Note that shrinkage works only with 'eigen' solver.

    priors : array-like of shape (n_classes,), default=None
        Class priors. By default, the class proportions are inferred from the
        training data.

    reg_param : float, default=0.0
        Regularizes the per-class covariance estimates by transforming S2 as
        ``S2 = (1 - reg_param) * S2 + reg_param * np.eye(n_features)``,
        where S2 corresponds to the `scaling_` attribute of a given class.

    store_covariance : bool, default=False
        If True, the class covariance matrices are explicitly computed and
        stored in the `self.covariance_` attribute.

        .. versionadded:: 0.17

    tol : float, default=1.0e-4
        Absolute threshold for the covariance matrix to be considered rank
        deficient after applying some regularization (see `reg_param`) to each
        `Sk` where `Sk` represents covariance matrix for k-th class. This
        parameter does not affect the predictions. It controls when a warning
        is raised if the covariance matrix is not full rank.

        .. versionadded:: 0.17

        This should be left to `None` if `covariance_estimator` is used.

    Parameters
    ----------
    solver : {'svd', 'eigen'}, default='svd'
        Solver to use, possible values:
          - 'svd': Singular value decomposition (default).
            Does not compute the covariance matrix, therefore this solver is
            recommended for data with a large number of features.
          - 'eigen': Eigenvalue decomposition.
            Can be combined with shrinkage or custom covariance estimator.

    shrinkage : 'auto' or float, default=None
        Shrinkage parameter, possible values:
          - None: no shrinkage (default).
          - 'auto': automatic shrinkage using the Ledoit-Wolf lemma.
          - float between 0 and 1: fixed shrinkage parameter.

          Enabling shrinkage is expected to improve the model when some
          classes have a relatively small number of training data points
          compared to the number of features by mitigating overfitting during
          the covariance estimation step.

        This should be left to `None` if `covariance_estimator` is used.
        Note that shrinkage works only with 'eigen' solver.

    priors : array-like of shape (n_classes,), default=None
        Class priors. By default, the class proportions are inferred from the
        training data.
