A generalization of the fixed point estimate
In this paper, the problem of proportional covariance matrices estimation for random Gaussian complex vectors is investigated. The maximum likelihood estimates of the matrix and the scale factors are derived, and their statistical performances are studied, through bias, consistency and asymptotic distribution. It is also shown that the problem treated here generalizes the covariance estimation ...

15 صفحه اولThree-point Statistics from a New Perspective
Multipole expansion of spatial three-point statistics is introduced as a tool for investigating and displaying configuration dependence. The novel parametrization renders the relation between bi-spectrum and three-point correlation function especially transparent as a set of two-dimensional Hankel transforms. It is expected on theoretical grounds, that three-point statistics can be described ac...
