Generalized Covariance Estimator
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]
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]
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
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
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]
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 ...

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