This paper addresses the task of estimating a covariance matrix under a patternless sparsity assumption. In contrast to existing approaches based on thresholding or shrinkage penalties, we propose a likelihood-based method that regularizes…

In this paper we propose an approach to approximate a truncated singular value decomposition of a large structured matrix. By first decomposing the matrix into a sum of Kronecker products, our approach can be used to approximate a large…

We benchmark the reliability of the Rotation Measure (RM) synthesis algorithm using the 1005 Centaurus A field sources of Feain et al. (2009). The RM synthesis solutions are compared with estimates of the polarization parameters using…

This paper addresses a quadratic problem with assignment constraints, an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arisen from facility location, multiple-input multiple-output detection, and maximum mean discrepancy calculation et al. The…

We investigate predictive densities for multivariate normal models with unknown mean vectors and known covariance matrices. Bayesian predictive densities based on shrinkage priors often have complex representations, although they are…

Multi-target linear shrinkage is an extension of the standard single-target linear shrinkage for covariance estimation. We combine several constant matrices - the targets - with the sample covariance matrix. We derive the oracle and a…

Exact solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation for the Coulomb potential are used in the scope of both stationary and time-dependent scattering theories in order to find the parameters which define regularization of the Rutherford…

The performance of space-time adaptive processing (STAP) is often degraded by factors such as limited sample size and moving targets. Traditional clutter covariance matrix (CCM) estimation relies on Euclidean metrics, which fail to capture…

Polarimetry with permille-level precision is essential for future electron-positron linear colliders. Compton polarimeters can reach negligible statistical uncertainties within seconds of measurement time. The dominating systematic…

We consider estimating the population covariance matrix when the number of available samples is less than the size of the observations. The sample covariance matrix (SCM) being singular, regularization is mandatory in this case. For this…

An accurate sea clutter distribution is crucial for decision region determination when detecting sea-surface floating targets. However, traditional parametric models possibly have a considerable gap to the realistic distribution of sea…

We introduce a distributionally robust maximum likelihood estimation model with a Wasserstein ambiguity set to infer the inverse covariance matrix of a $p$-dimensional Gaussian random vector from $n$ independent samples. The proposed model…

The solution, $x$, of the linear system of equations $A x\approx b$ arising from the discretization of an ill-posed integral equation with a square integrable kernel $H(s,t)$ is considered. The Tikhonov regularized solution $ x(\lambda)$ is…

Over the past decades, there has been a surge of interest in studying low-dimensional structures within high-dimensional data. Statistical factor models $-$ i.e., low-rank plus diagonal covariance structures $-$ offer a powerful framework…

Cosmological parameter inference from galaxy clustering relies critically on accurate estimates of the covariance and precision matrices. These are often obtained from a limited number of mock catalogs, introducing noise and bias in the…

Finite Gaussian mixture models provide a powerful and widely employed probabilistic approach for clustering multivariate continuous data. However, the practical usefulness of these models is jeopardized in high-dimensional spaces, where…

In this study, we propose shrinkage methods based on {\it generalized ridge regression} (GRR) estimation which is suitable for both multicollinearity and high dimensional problems with small number of samples (large $p$, small $n$). Also,…

We study the Gaussian and robust covariance estimation, assuming the true covariance matrix to be a Kronecker product of two lower dimensional square matrices. In both settings we define the estimators as solutions to the constrained…

We seek to improve estimates of the power spectrum covariance matrix from a limited number of simulations by employing a novel statistical technique known as shrinkage estimation. The shrinkage technique optimally combines an empirical…

Efficient clutter filtering for pulsed radar systems remains an open issue when employing pulse-to-pulse modulation and irregular pulse interval waveforms within the coherent processing interval. The range and Doppler domain should be…
