Asymptotic Theory for Common Principal Component Analysis
共同主成分分析的渐近理论
Under the common principal component model $k$ covariance matrices $\mathbf{\Sigma}_1,\cdots,\mathbf{\Sigma}_k$ are simultaneously diagonalizable, i.e., there exists an orthogonal matrix $\mathbf{\beta}$ such that $\mathbf{\beta'\Sigma_i\beta = \Lambda_i}$ is diagonal for $i = 1,\cdots, k$. In this article we give the asymptotic distribution of the maximum likelihood estimates of $\mathbf{\beta}$ and $\mathbf{\Lambda}_i$. Using these results, we derive tests for (a) equality…
