Positive-Definite l1-Penalized Estimation of Large Covariance Matrices
The thresholding covariance estimator has nice asymptotic properties for estimating sparse large covariance matrices, but it often has negative eigenvalues when used in real data analysis. To fix this drawback of thresholding estimation, we develop a positive-definite l1penalized covariance estimator for estimating sparse large covariance matrices. We derive an efficient alternating direction m...

متن کاملAutomatic positive semi-definite HAC covariance matrix and GMM estimation
This paper proposes a new class of HAC covariance matrix estimators. The standard HAC estimation method re-weights estimators of the autocovariances. Here we initially smooth the data observations themselves using kernel function based weights. The resultant HAC covariance matrix estimator is the normalised outer product of the smoothed random vectors and is therefore automatically positive sem...
متن کاملHigher-order accurate, positive semi-definite estimation of large-sample covariance and spectral density matrices
A new class of large-sample covariance and spectral density matrix estimators is proposed based on the notion of flat-top kernels. The new estimators are shown to be higher-order accurate when higher-order accuracy is possible. A discussion on kernel choice is presented as well as a supporting finite-sample simulation. The problem of spectral estimation under a potential lack of finite fourth m...
متن کاملGeneralized Hermite Interpolation via Matrix-valued Conditionally Positive Definite Functions
In this paper, we consider a broad class of interpolation problems, for both scalarand vector-valued multivariate functions subject to linear side conditions, such as being divergence-free, where the data are generated via integration against compactly supported distributions. We show that, by using certain families of matrix-valued conditionally positive definite functions, such interpolation ...
