Covariance matrix estimation methods for constrained portfolio optimization in a South African setting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
One of the major topics of concern in Modern Portfolio Theory is portfolio optimization which is centred on the mean-variance framework. In order for this framework to be implemented, esti- mated parameters (covariance matrix for the constrained portfo ...

Estimating Covariance Matrices

open access: yesThe Annals of Statistics, 1991
Let \(S_ 1\sim W_ p(\Sigma_ 1,n_ 1)\) and \(S_ 2\sim W_ p(\Sigma_ 2,n_ 2)\) be two independent \(p\times p\) Wishart matrices. It is desired to consider the minimax estimation of \((\Sigma_ 1,\Sigma_ 2)\) under the loss function \[ \sum_{i=1}^ 2\{\hbox {tr}(\Sigma_ i^{-1}\hat\Sigma_ i-\log| \Sigma_ i^{- 1}\hat\Sigma_ i|-p\}, \] extending known results ...

k-Covariance: An Approach of Ensemble Covariance Estimation and Undersampling to Stabilize the Covariance Matrix in the Global Minimum Variance Portfolio

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
A covariance matrix is an important parameter in many computational applications, such as quantitative trading. Recently, a global minimum variance portfolio received great attention due to its performance after the 2007–2008 financial crisis, and this ...

Geodesic Convexity and Covariance Estimation [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 2012
Geodesic convexity is a generalization of classical convexity which guarantees that all local minima of g-convex functions are globally optimal. We consider g-convex functions with positive definite matrix variables, and prove that Kronecker products, and logarithms of determinants are g-convex.

Evaluation of structure specification in linear mixed models for modeling the spatial effects in tree height-diamater relationships [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Research, 2013
In recent years, linear mixed models (LMM) have become more popular to deal with spatial effects in forestry and ecological data. In this study, different structure specifications of linear mixed model were applied to model tree height-diameter ...

Estimating cosmological parameter covariance [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2014
We investigate the bias and error in estimates of the cosmological parameter covariance matrix, due to sampling or modelling the data covariance matrix, for likelihood width and peak scatter estimators. We show that these estimators do not coincide unless the data covariance is exactly known. For sampled data covariances, with Gaussian distributed data

Profiling neoadjuvant therapy response in rectal cancer using meta‐analysis of publicly available transcriptomic RNA‐seq datasets

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates publicly available transcriptomic datasets to identify molecular signatures associated with response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer. By analyzing a combination of multiple cohorts with bioinformatics approaches, we reveal biological pathways and immune‐related features that may improve ...
