We study the statistical complexity of private linear regression under an unknown, potentially ill-conditioned covariate distribution. Somewhat surprisingly, under privacy constraints the intrinsic complexity is \emph{not} captured by the…
Let $\mathbf{W}\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ be a {\it single-spiked} Wishart matrix in the class $\mathbf{W}\sim \mathcal{CW}_n(m,\mathbf{I}_n+ \theta \mathbf{v}\mathbf{v}^\dagger) $ with $m\geq n$, where $\mathbf{I}_n$ is the $n\times n$…
In a spiked population model, the population covariance matrix has all its eigenvalues equal to units except for a few fixed eigenvalues (spikes). Determining the number of spikes is a fundamental problem which appears in many scientific…

I present here some results on the statistical behaviour of large random matrices in an ensemble where the probability distribution is not a function of the eigenvalues only. The perturbative expansion can be cast in a closed form and the…
We study the statistics of the largest eigenvalue lambda_max of N x N random matrices with unit variance, but power-law distributed entries, P(M_{ij})~ |M_{ij}|^{-1-mu}. When mu > 4, lambda_max converges to 2 with Tracy-Widom fluctuations…
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a prevalent neuroimaging tool in analyzing the anatomical structure. The distinguishing feature of DTI is that the voxel-wise variable is a 3x3 positive definite matrix other than a scalar, describing the…

The statistical behaviour of the smallest eigenvalue has important implications for systems which can be modeled using a Wishart-Laguerre ensemble, the regular one or the fixed trace one. For example, the density of the smallest eigenvalue…
This paper investigates a statistical procedure for testing the equality of two independent estimated covariance matrices when the number of potentially dependent data vectors is large and proportional to the size of the vectors, that is,…
