Generalized Covariance Estimator

open access: yesJournal of Business & Economic Statistics, 2022
We consider a class of semi-parametric dynamic models with independent identically distributed errors, including the nonlinear mixed causal-noncausal Vector Autoregressive (VAR), Double-Autoregressive (DAR) and stochastic volatility models. To estimate the parameters characterizing the (nonlinear) serial dependence, we introduce a generic Generalized ...

Intuitive covariation estimation [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 1986
Six experiments concerned people's ability to estimate the degree and sign of covariation represented in a bivariate distribution of stimuli with which they had just been presented as a series of pairs of stimuli. The stimuli were pairs of numbers, pairs of lines of variable lengths, or word-line pairs.

Shrinkage Estimation of the Power Spectrum Covariance Matrix [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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.

Covariance-Aware Private Mean Estimation Without Private Covariance Estimation

open access: yes, 2021
We present two sample-efficient differentially private mean estimators for $d$-dimensional (sub)Gaussian distributions with unknown covariance. Informally, given $n \gtrsim d/α^2$ samples from such a distribution with mean $μ$ and covariance $Σ$, our estimators output $\tildeμ$ such that $\| \tildeμ- μ\|_Σ \leq α$, where $\| \cdot \|_Σ$ is the ...

Knowledge-Aided Structured Covariance Matrix Estimator Applied for Radar Sensor Signal Detection

open access: yesSensors, 2019
This study deals with the problem of covariance matrix estimation for radar sensor signal detection applications with insufficient secondary data in non-Gaussian clutter. According to the Euclidean mean, the authors combined an available prior covariance

Covariance Estimation: The GLM and Regularization Perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Finding an unconstrained and statistically interpretable reparameterization of a covariance matrix is still an open problem in statistics. Its solution is of central importance in covariance estimation, particularly in the recent high-dimensional data ...

Between Nonlinearities, Complexity, and Noises: An Application on Portfolio Selection Using Kernel Principal Component Analysis

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
This paper discusses the effects of introducing nonlinear interactions and noise-filtering to the covariance matrix used in Markowitz’s portfolio allocation model, evaluating the technique’s performances for daily data from seven financial ...

When do improved covariance matrix estimators enhance portfolio optimization? An empirical comparative study of nine estimators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The use of improved covariance matrix estimators as an alternative to the sample estimator is considered an important approach for enhancing portfolio optimization.

Variational Bayes for Regime-Switching Log-Normal Models

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
The power of projection using divergence functions is a major theme in information geometry. One version of this is the variational Bayes (VB) method. This paper looks at VB in the context of other projection-based methods in information geometry.
