We propose a general procedure for estimating the variance-covariance matrix of two-step estimates of structural parameters in latent variable models. The method is partially simulation-based, in that it includes drawing simulated values of…
Using random matrix technique we determine an exact relation between the eigenvalue spectrum of the covariance matrix and of its estimator. This relation can be used in practice to compute eigenvalue invariants of the covariance…
We consider the extreme eigenvalues of the sample covariance matrix $Q=YY^*$ under the generalized elliptical model that $Y=\Sigma^{1/2}XD.$ Here $\Sigma$ is a bounded $p \times p$ positive definite deterministic matrix representing the…
Let $X_1,\ldots,X_M$ and $Y_1,\ldots,Y_N$ be independent zero mean normal random variables with variances $\sigma_{X_i}^2$, $i=1,\ldots,M$, and $\sigma_{Y_j}^2$, $j=1,\ldots,N$, respectively, and let $X=X_1\cdots X_M$ and $Y=Y_1\cdots Y_N$.…
Factor analysis aims to describe high dimensional random vectors by means of a small number of unknown common factors. In mathematical terms, it is required to decompose the covariance matrix $\Sigma$ of the random vector as the sum of a…
Relying on recent advances in statistical estimation of covariance distances based on random matrix theory, this article proposes an improved covariance and precision matrix estimation for a wide family of metrics. The method is shown to…
The mean and variance of the number of appearances of a given subgraph $H$ in an Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph over $n$ nodes are rational polynomials in $n$. We present a piece of software named Polcovar (from "polynomial" and…
We consider the general problem of learning about a matrix through vector-matrix-vector queries. These queries provide the value of $\boldsymbol{u}^{\mathrm{T}}\boldsymbol{M}\boldsymbol{v}$ over a fixed field $\mathbb{F}$ for a specified…
Suppose $\boldsymbol{y}$ is a real random variable, and one is given access to ``the code'' that generates it (for example, a randomized or quantum circuit whose output is $\boldsymbol{y}$). We give a quantum procedure that runs the code…
We show that the orthogonal projection operator onto the range of the adjoint of a linear operator T can be represented as UT, where U is an invertible linear operator. Using this representation we obtain a decomposition of a multivariate…
Covariances and variances of linear statistics of a point process can be written as integrals over the truncated two-point correlation function. When the point process consists of the eigenvalues of a random matrix ensemble, there are often…
In this paper we relate the matrix $S_B$ of the second moments of a spherically truncated normal multivariate to its full covariance matrix $\Sigma$ and present an algorithm to invert the relation and reconstruct $\Sigma$ from $S_B$. While…
This work presents a detailed covariance and correlation matrix analysis for experimentally measured cross sections obtained using the activation technique. Both statistical and systematic contributions to the covariance matrix were…
Let $G, G_1,\dots,G_N$ be independent copies of a standard gaussian random vector in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and denote by $\Gamma = \sum_{i=1}^N \langle G_i,\cdot\rangle e_i$ the standard gaussian ensemble. We show that, for any set $A\subset…
In this article, we focus on the problem of testing the equality of several high dimensional mean vectors with unequal covariance matrices. This is one of the most important problem in multivariate statistical analysis and there have been…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of sequences of multivariate random variables representing the number of occurrences of a given set of symbols in a word of length $n$ generated at random according to a rational stochastic model. Assuming…
In this paper we propose an optimal predictor of a random variable that has either an infinite mean or an infinite variance. The method consists of transforming the random variable such that the transformed variable has a finite mean and…
We consider the problem of estimating high-dimensional covariance matrices of $K$-populations or classes in the setting where the sample sizes are comparable to the data dimension. We propose estimating each class covariance matrix as a…
We introduce a new random matrix model called distance covariance matrix in this paper, whose normalized trace is equivalent to the distance covariance. We first derive a deterministic limit for the eigenvalue distribution of the distance…
This paper considers the problem of estimating a change point in the covariance matrix in a sequence of high-dimensional vectors, where the dimension is substantially larger than the sample size. A two-stage approach is proposed to…
