Fixed and random covariance regression analyses
固定与随机协变量下的协方差回归分析
Covariance regression analysis is an approach to linking the covariance of responses to a set of explanatory variables X, where X can be a vector, matrix, or tensor. Most of the literature on this topic focuses on the “Fixed-X” setting and treats X as nonrandom. By contrast, treating explanatory variables X as random, namely the “Random-X” setting, is often more realistic in practice. This article aims to fill this gap in the literature on the estimation and model assessment…
