We are interested in the distribution of Wishart samples after forgetting their scaling factors. We call such a distribution a projective Wishart distribution. We show that projective Wishart distributions have strong links with the…

The noncentral Wishart distribution has become more mainstream in statistics as the prevalence of applications involving sample covariances with underlying multivariate Gaussian populations as dramatically increased since the advent of…

A Wishart kernel density estimator (KDE) is introduced for density estimation in the cone of positive definite matrices. The estimator is boundary-aware and mitigates the boundary bias suffered by conventional KDEs, while remaining simple…

Wishart random matrix theory is of major importance for the analysis of correlated time series. The distribution of the smallest eigenvalue for Wishart correlation matrices is particularly interesting in many applications. In the complex…

Geostatistical modeling for continuous point-referenced data has been extensively applied to neuroimaging because it produces efficient and valid statistical inference. However, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), a neuroimaging characterizing…

Covariance matrix estimation arises in multivariate problems including multivariate normal sampling models and regression models where random effects are jointly modeled, e.g. random-intercept, random-slope models. A Bayesian analysis of…

This paper proposes a unified approach that enables the Wishart distribution to be studied simultaneously in the real, complex, quaternion and octonion cases. In particular, the noncentral generalised Wishart distribution, the joint density…

This paper deals with minimax rates of convergence for estimation of density functions on the real line. The densities are assumed to be location mixtures of normals, a global regularity requirement that creates subtle difficulties for the…

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a popular magnetic resonance imaging technique used to characterize microstructural changes in the brain. DTI studies quantify the diffusion of water molecules in a voxel using an estimated 3x3 symmetric…

The sum of independent Wishart matrices, taken from distributions with unequal covariance matrices, plays a crucial role in multivariate statistics, and has applications in the fields of quantitative finance and telecommunication. However,…

The sum of Wishart matrices has an important role in multiuser communication employing multiantenna elements, such as multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiple access channel (MAC), MIMO Relay channel, and other multiuser channels…

Hilbert-Schmidt distance is one of the prominent distance measures in quantum information theory which finds applications in diverse problems, such as construction of entanglement witnesses, quantum algorithms in machine learning, and…

Using a character expansion method, we calculate exactly the eigenvalue density of random matrices of the form M^\dagger M where M is a complex matrix drawn from a normalized distribution P(M) ~ exp(-\Tr(A M B M^\dagger) with A and B…

In this paper, we derive the explicit series expansion of the eigenvalue distribution of various models, namely the case of non-central Wishart distributions, as well as correlated zero mean Wishart distributions. The tools used extend…

The current paper presents a novel machinery for studying non-asymptotic minimax estimation of high-dimensional matrices, which yields tight minimax rates for a large collection of loss functions in a variety of problems. Based on the…

We derive concentration inequalities for the spectral measure of large random matrices, allowing for certain forms of dependence. Our main focus is on empirical covariance (Wishart) matrices, but general symmetric random matrices are also…

In this paper, we consider the problem of deriving new eigenvalue distributions of real-valued Wishart matrices that arises in many scientific and engineering applications. The distributions are derived using the tools from the theory of…

Covariance matrices provide a valuable source of information about complex interactions and dependencies within the data. However, from a clustering perspective, this information has often been underutilized and overlooked. Indeed, commonly…

Wishart random matrices with a sparse or diluted structure are ubiquitous in the processing of large datasets, with applications in physics, biology and economy. In this work we develop a theory for the eigenvalue fluctuations of diluted…

This paper presents a new discretization error quantification method for the numerical integration of ordinary differential equations. The error is modelled by using the Wishart distribution, which enables us to capture the correlation…
