For multichannel autoregressive moving average (ARMA) signal with colored measurement noises, based on classical Kalman filtering theory, a covariance intersection (CI) fusion smoother without cross-covariances is presented by the augmented state space model. It has the advantage that the computation of cross-covariances is avoid, so it can significantly reduce the computational burden, and it can solve the fusion problem for multi-sensor systems with unknown cross-covariances. Under the unbiased linear minimum variance (ULMV) criterion, three optimal weighted fusion smoothers with matrix weig

Abstract:
Many financial decisions, such as portfolio allocation, risk management, option pricing and hedge strategies, are based on forecasts of the conditional variances, covariances and correlations of financial returns. The paper shows an empirical comparison of several methods to predict one-step-ahead conditional covariance matrices. These matrices are used as inputs to obtain out-of-sample minimum variance portfolios based on stocks belonging to the S&P500 index from 2000 to 2017 and sub-periods. The analysis is done through several metrics, including standard deviation, turnover, net average

ABSTRACT We present configuration-space estimators for the auto- and cross-covariance of two- and three-point correlation functions (2PCF and 3PCF) in general survey geometries. These are derived in the Gaussian limit (setting higher order correlation functions to zero), but for arbitrary non-linear 2PCFs (which may be estimated from the survey itself), with a shot-noise rescaling parameter included to capture non-Gaussianity. We generalize previous approaches to include Legendre moments via a geometry-correction function calibrated from measured pair and triple counts. Making use of importanc

Abstract:
Abstract Hybrid data assimilation methods combine elements of ensemble Kalman filters (EnKF) and variational methods. While most approaches have focused on augmenting an operational variational system with dynamic error covariance information from an ensemble, this study takes the opposite perspective of augmenting an operational EnKF with information from a simple 3D variational data assimilation (3D-Var) method. A class of hybrid methods is introduced that combines the gain matrices of the ensemble and variational methods, rather than linearly combining the respective background error covari

AbstractWe describe an efficient algorithm for the inversion of covariance matrices that arise in the context of phylogenetic tree construction. Phylogenetic trees describe the evolutionary relationships between species, and their construction is computationally demanding. Many approaches involve the symmetric matrix of evolutionary distances between species. Regarding these distances as random variables, the corresponding set of variances and covariances form a rank-4 tensor, and the inner-product defined by its inverse can be used to assign statistical scores to candidate trees.

Abstract:
AbstractA variational algorithm for estimating measurement error covariance and the attenuation of X-band polarimetric radar measurements is described. It concurrently uses both the differential reflectivity ZDR and propagation phase ΦDP. The majority of the current attenuation estimation techniques use only ΦDP. A few of the ΦDP-based methods use ZDR as a constraint for verifying estimated attenuation. In this paper, a detailed observing system simulation experiment was used for evaluating the performance of the variational algorithm. The results were compared with a single-coefficient ΦDP-ba

Abstract:
Abstract Cosmological covariance matrices are fundamental for parameter inference, since they are responsible for propagating uncertainties from the data down to the model parameters. However, when data vectors are large, in order to estimate accurate and precise covariance matrices we need huge numbers of observations, or rather costly simulations - neither of which may be viable. In this work we propose a machine learning approach to alleviate this problem in the context of the covariance matrices used in the study of large-scale structure.
