Thinning a Wishart random matrix
Wishart随机矩阵的数据拆分
Summary Recent work has explored data thinning, a generalization of sample splitting that involves decomposing a (possibly matrix-valued) random variable into independent components. In the special case of an $ n\times p $ random matrix with independent and identically distributed $ N_{p}(\mu,\Sigma) $ rows, Dharamshi et al. (2026)provided a comprehensive analysis of the settings in which thinning is or is not possible: briefly, if $ \Sigma $ is unknown then one can thin…
