Covariance matrix estimation with heterogeneous samples [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 2008
We consider the problem of estimating the covariance matrix Mp of an observation vector, using heterogeneous training samples, i.e., samples whose covariance matrices are not exactly Mp.

Estimation of a Covariance Matrix with Zeros [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrika, 2005
We consider estimation of the covariance matrix of a multivariate random vector under the constraint that certain covariances are zero. We first present an algorithm, which we call Iterative Conditional Fitting, for computing the maximum likelihood ...

The Effects of Data Imputation on Covariance and Inverse Covariance Matrix Estimation

open access: yesIEEE Access
Various data analysis techniques and procedures (correlation heatmap, linear discriminant analysis, quadratic discriminant analysis) rely on the estimation of the covariance matrix or its inverse (the precision matrix).

Covariance Matrix Estimation for Massive MIMO [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Signal Processing Letters, 2018
We propose a novel pilot structure for covariance matrix estimation in massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems in which each user transmits two pilot sequences, with the second pilot sequence multiplied by a random phase-shift.

A nonparametric empirical Bayes approach to covariance matrix estimation

open access: yesBiometrics, 2021
We propose an empirical Bayes method to estimate high-dimensional covariance matrices. Our procedure centers on vectorizing the covariance matrix and treating matrix estimation as a vector estimation problem.

Sparse Covariance Matrix Estimation With Eigenvalue Constraints. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Comput Graph Stat, 2014
We propose a new approach for estimating high-dimensional, positive-definite covariance matrices. Our method extends the generalized thresholding operator by adding an explicit eigenvalue constraint. The estimated covariance matrix simultaneously achieves sparsity and positive definiteness.

Sparse estimation of a covariance matrix [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrika, 2011
We suggest a method for estimating a covariance matrix on the basis of a sample of vectors drawn from a multivariate normal distribution. In particular, we penalize the likelihood with a lasso penalty on the entries of the covariance matrix. This penalty plays two important roles: it reduces the effective number of parameters, which is important even ...

Bounds for estimation of covariance matrices from heterogeneous samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This correspondence derives lower bounds on the mean-square error (MSE) for the estimation of a covariance matrix mbi Mp, using samples mbi Zk,k=1,...,K, whose covariance matrices mbi Mk are randomly distributed around mbi Mp.
