Existence and uniqueness of the Kronecker covariance MLE
Kronecker 协方差极大似然估计的存在性与唯一性
In matrix-valued datasets the sampled matrices often exhibit correlations among both their rows and their columns. A useful and parsimonious model of such dependence is the matrix normal model, in which the covariances among the elements of a random matrix are parameterized in terms of the Kronecker product of two covariance matrices, one representing row covariances and one representing column covariance. An appealing feature of such a matrix normal model is that the…
