Elliptical graphical modelling
椭圆分布图模型
We propose elliptical graphical models based on conditional uncorrelatedness as a robust generalization of Gaussian graphical models. Letting the population distribution be elliptical instead of normal allows the fitting of data with arbitrarily heavy tails. We study the class of proportionally affine equivariant scatter estimators and show how they can be used to perform elliptical graphical modelling. This leads to a new class of partial correlation estimators and…
