Estimation of Covariance Matrix
Estimation of population covariance matrices from samples of multivariate data is important. (1) Estimation of principle components and eigenvalues. (2) Construction of linear discriminant functions. (3) Establishing independence and conditional independence. (4) Setting confidence intervals on linear functions. Suppose we observed p dimensional multivariate samples X1, X2, · · · , Xn i.i.d. wi...
متن کاملRandom matrix theory and estimation of high-dimensional covariance matrices
This projects aims to present significant results of random matrix theory in regards to the principal component analysis, including Wigner’s semicircular law and Marčenko-Pastur law describing limiting distribution of large dimensional random matrices. The work bases on the large dimensional data assumptions, where both the number of variables and sample size tends to infinity, while their rati...
متن کاملImproved HAC Covariance Matrix Estimation Based on Forecast Errors
We propose computing HAC covariance matrix estimators based on one-stepahead forecasting errors. It is shown that this estimator is consistent and has smaller bias than other HAC estimators. Moreover, the tests that rely on this estimator have more accurate sizes without sacrificing its power.
متن کاملRandom Matrix Theory and Robust Covariance Matrix Estimation for Financial Data
The traditional class of elliptical distributions is extended to allow for asymmetries. A completely robust dispersion matrix estimator (the ‘spectral estimator’) for the new class of ‘generalized elliptical distributions’ is presented. It is shown that the spectral estimator corresponds to an M-estimator proposed by Tyler (1983) in the context of elliptical distributions. Both the generalizati...
متن کاملSparse estimation of a covariance matrix.
We suggest a method for estimating a covariance matrix on the basis of a sample of vectors drawn from a multivariate normal distribution. In particular, we penalize the likelihood with a lasso penalty on the entries of the covariance matrix. This penalty plays two important roles: it reduces the effective number of parameters, which is important even when the dimension of the vectors is smaller...
