Multivariate functional principal component analysis (MFPCA) is a powerful dimension reduction technique for analyzing multiple functional variables simultaneously. However, existing MFPCA methods assume that all functional observations are…

We study the problem of detecting an abrupt change to the signal covariance matrix. In particular, the covariance changes from a "white" identity matrix to an unknown spiked or low-rank matrix. Two sequential change-point detection…
