Comparison of linear shrinkage estimators of a large covariance matrix in normal and non-normal distributions
The problem of estimating the large covariance matrix of both normal and nonnormal distributions is addressed. In convex combinations of the sample covariance matrix and the identity matrix multiplied by a scalor statistic, we suggest a new estimator of the optimal weight based on exact or approximately unbiased estimators of the numerator and denominator of the optimal weight in non-normal cas...
متن کاملAsymptotic Efficiencies of the MLE Based on Bivariate Record Values from Bivariate Normal Distribution
Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) estimation based on bivariate record data is considered as the general inference problem. Assume that the process of observing k records is repeated m times, independently. The asymptotic properties including consistency and asymptotic normality of the Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimates of parameters of the underlying distribution is then established, when m is ...
متن کاملImproved Covariance Matrix Estimators for Weighted Analysis of Microarray Data
Empirical Bayes models have been shown to be powerful tools for identifying differentially expressed genes from gene expression microarray data. An example is the WAME model, where a global covariance matrix accounts for array-to-array correlations as well as differing variances between arrays. However, the existing method for estimating the covariance matrix is very computationally intensive a...
متن کاملAsymptotic expansion of the minimum covariance determinant estimators
In Cator and Lopuhaä [3] an asymptotic expansion for the MCD estimators is established in a very general framework. This expansion requires the existence and non-singularity of the derivative in a first-order Taylor expansion. In this paper, we prove the existence of this derivative for multivariate distributions that have a density and provide an explicit expression. Moreover, under suitable s...
متن کاملHigher Order Asymptotic Cumulants of Studentized Estimators in Covariance Structures
This note gives corrections of the numerical values of the higher-order asymptotic variances (standard errors) and kurtoses of the Studentized estimators (and consequently the root mean square errors of the two-term Edgeworth expansions) shown in the tables of Ogasawara (2008a, 2008b). The corrections are due to a minor bug in the computer program. The corrected values given in the following Ta...
