A data driven equivariant approach to constrained Gaussian mixture modeling

open access: yes, 2016
Maximum likelihood estimation of Gaussian mixture models with different class-specific covariance matrices is known to be problematic. This is due to the unboundedness of the likelihood, together with the presence of spurious maximizers. Existing methods

Proportionality of Covariance Matrices

open access: yesThe Annals of Statistics, 1987
S\({}_ 0,S_ 1,...,S_ k\) are mutually independent p by p matrices, \(S_ i\) having a Wishart distribution with \(n_ i\) degrees of freedom and expectation \(\Sigma_ i\). The likelihood ratio test of the hypothesis \(\Sigma_ i=\lambda_ i\Sigma_ 0\) for \(i=1,...,k\) is developed.

bspcov: An R Package for Bayesian sparse covariance matrix estimation

open access: yesSoftwareX
The bspcov R package provides a Bayesian inference for covariance matrices. The bspcov is developed to aid in research that involves estimating constrained covariance matrices by enabling the use of state-of-the-art Bayesian inference methods.

Penalized maximum likelihood for multivariate Gaussian mixture

open access: yes, 2001
In this paper, we first consider the parameter estimation of a multivariate random process distribution using multivariate Gaussian mixture law. The labels of the mixture are allowed to have a general probability law which gives the possibility to ...

Universality of covariance matrices

open access: yesThe Annals of Applied Probability, 2014
In this paper we prove the universality of covariance matrices of the form $H_{N\times N}={X}^{\dagger}X$ where $X$ is an ${M\times N}$ rectangular matrix with independent real valued entries $x_{ij}$ satisfying $\mathbb{E}x_{ij}=0$ and $\mathbb{E}x^2_{ij}={\frac{1}{M}}$, $N$, $M\to \infty$.

Spiked sample covariance matrices with possibly multiple bulk components [PDF]

open access: yesRandom Matrices. Theory and Applications, 2017
In this paper, we study the convergent limits and rates of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors for spiked sample covariance matrices whose spectrum can have multiple bulk components.

Research Article Comparing covariance matrices: random skewers method compared to the common principal components model

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2007
Comparisons of covariance patterns are becoming more common as interest in the evolution of relationships between traits and in the evolutionary phenotypic diversification of clades have grown. We present parallel analyses of covariance matrix similarity

A Review of Innovation-Based Methods to Jointly Estimate Model and Observation Error Covariance Matrices in Ensemble Data Assimilation

open access: yesMonthly Weather Review, 2018
Data assimilation combines forecasts from a numerical model with observations. Most of the current data assimilation algorithms consider the model and observation error terms as additive Gaussian noise, specified by their covariance matricesand ...

Covariance Matrices under Bell-like Detections [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Systems & Information Dynamics, 2013
We derive a simple formula for the transformation of an arbitrary covariance matrix of (n + 2) bosonic modes under general Bell-like detections, where the last two modes are combined in an arbitrary beam splitter (i.e., with arbitrary transmissivity) and then homodyned.

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire‐8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age among People with Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient‐centered Intervention Network Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.
