Sparse Inverse Covariance Matrix Estimation Using Quadratic Approximation
The l1 regularized Gaussian maximum likelihood estimator has been shown to have strong statistical guarantees in recovering a sparse inverse covariance matrix, or alternatively the underlying graph structure of a Gaussian Markov Random Field, from very limited samples. We propose a novel algorithm for solving the resulting optimization problem which is a regularized log-determinant program. In ...
متن کامل0 Sparse Inverse Covariance Estimation
Recently, there has been focus on penalized loglikelihood covariance estimation for sparse inverse covariance (precision) matrices. The penalty is responsible for inducing sparsity, and a very common choice is the convex l1 norm. However, the best estimator performance is not always achieved with this penalty. The most natural sparsity promoting “norm” is the non-convex l0 penalty but its lack ...
متن کاملJPEN Estimation of Covariance and Inverse Covariance Matrix A Well-Conditioned and Sparse Estimation of Covariance and Inverse Covariance Matrices Using a Joint Penalty
We develop a method for estimating well-conditioned and sparse covariance and inverse covariance matrices from a sample of vectors drawn from a sub-gaussian distribution in high dimensional setting. The proposed estimators are obtained by minimizing the quadratic loss function and joint penalty of `1 norm and variance of its eigenvalues. In contrast to some of the existing methods of covariance...
متن کاملSparse inverse covariance estimation with the lasso
We consider the problem of estimating sparse graphs by a lasso penalty applied to the inverse covariance matrix. Using a coordinate descent procedure for the lasso, we develop a simple algorithm— the Graphical Lasso— that is remarkably fast: it solves a 1000 node problem (∼ 500, 000 parameters) in at most a minute, and is 30 to 4000 times faster than competing methods. It also provides a concep...
متن کاملMissing values and sparse inverse covariance estimation
We propose an `1-regularized likelihood method for estimating the inverse covariance matrix in the high-dimensional multivariate normal model in presence of missing data. Our method is based on the assumption that the data are missing at random (MAR) which entails also the completely missing at random case. The implementation of the method is non-trivial as the observed negative log-likelihood ...
