The COV= option must be specified to compute an approximate covariance matrix for the parameter estimates under asymptotic theory for least-squares, maximum-likelihood, or Bayesian estimation, with or ...

Harry Markowitz famously quipped that diversification is the only free lunch in investing. What he did not say is that this is only true if correlations are known and stable over time. Markowitz’s ...
Graphical models provide a robust framework for representing the conditional independence structure between variables through networks, enabling nuanced insight into complex high-dimensional data.
We consider estimation of covariance matrices and their inverses (a.k.a. precision matrices) for high-dimensional stationary and locally stationary time series. In the latter case the covariance ...
Graphical Gaussian models with edge and vertex symmetries were introduced by Højsgaard & Lauritzen (2008), who gave an algorithm for computing the maximum likelihood estimate of the precision matrix ...
Covariance matrix forecasts of financial asset returns are an important component of current practice in financial risk management. A wide variety of models are available for generating such forecasts ...
The distribution of genetic variation among multiple traits is a key determinant of how a population will respond to selection (Lande, 1979; Schluter, 1996; Arnold et al., 2001). For the prediction of ...
The estimated covariance matrix of the parameter estimates is computed as the inverse Hessian matrix, and for unconstrained problems it should be positive definite. If the final parameter estimates ...
