Description

This package provides a collection of functions for likelihood and equivariant inference for covariance matrices under the array normal model. Also included are functions for calculating tensor decompositions that are related to likelihood inference in the array normal model.

Introduction

Let X be a multidimensional array (also called a tensor) of K dimensions. This package provides a series of functions to perform statistical inference when

vec(X) \sim N(0,Σ),

where Σ is assumed to be Kronecker structured. That is, Σ is the Kronecker product of K covariance matrices, each of which has the interpretation of being the covariance of X along its kth mode, or dimension.

Pay particular attention to the zero mean assumption. That is, you need to de-mean your data prior to applying these functions. If you have more than one sample, X_i for i = 1,…,n, then you can concatenate these tensors along a (K+1)th mode to form a new tensor Y and apply the demean_tensor() function to Y which will return a tensor that satisfies the mean-zero assumption.

The details of the methods in this package can be found in Gerard and Hoff (2015) and Gerard and Hoff (2016).
