We consider a class of sample covariance matrices of the form $Q=TXX^{*}T^*,$ where $X=(x_{ij})$ is an $M \times N$ rectangular matrix consisting of i.i.d entries and $T$ is a deterministic matrix satisfying $T^*T$ is diagonal. Assuming $M$…

The salient properties of large empirical covariance and correlation matrices are studied for three datasets of size 54, 55 and 330. The covariance is defined as a simple cross product of the returns, with weights that decay logarithmically…

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) finds a linear mapping and maximizes the variance of the data which makes PCA sensitive to outliers and may cause wrong eigendirection. In this paper, we propose techniques to solve this problem; we use…

This text is about spiked models of non Hermitian random matrices. More specifically, we consider matrices of the type $A+P$, where the rank of $P$ stays bounded as the dimension goes to infinity and where the matrix $A$ is a non Hermitian…
We consider pairs of GOE (Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble) matrices which are correlated with each others, and subject to additive and multiplicative rank-one perturbations. We focus on the regime of parameters in which the finite-rank…
Outliers contaminating data sets are a challenge to statistical estimators. Even a small fraction of outlying observations can heavily influence most classical statistical methods. In this paper we propose generalized spherical principal…
