Estimation of the covariance matrices in the multivariate balanced one-way random effect model is discussed. The rank of the between-group covariance matrix plays a large role in model building as well as in assessing asymptotic properties of the estimated covariance matrices. The restricted (residu
It is well known that the best equivariant estimator of the variance covariance matrix of the multivariate normal distribution with respect to the full affine group of transformation is not even minimax. Some minimax estimators have been proposed. Here we treat this problem in the framework of a mul
The problem of estimating unknown observational variances in multivariate dynamic linear models is considered. Conjugate procedures are possible for univariate models and also for special very restrictive common components models but they are not generally applicable. However, for clarity of operati
We consider confidence sets for the mean of a multivariate normal distribution with unknown covariance matrix of the form \_ 2 I. The coverage probability of the usual confidence set is shown to be improved asymptotically by centering at a shrinkage estimator.
