We propose a two-sample test for covariance matrices in the high-dimensional regime, where the dimension diverges proportionally to the sample size. Our hybrid test combines a Frobenius-norm-based statistic as considered in Li and Chen…
This paper focuses on the prominent sphericity test when the dimension $p$ is much lager than sample size $n$. The classical likelihood ratio test(LRT) is no longer applicable when $p\gg n$. Therefore a Quasi-LRT is proposed and asymptotic…
