Multivariate Bayesian P-spline estimation of spectral density matrices, with application to LISA TDI noise
谱密度矩阵的多元贝叶斯 P 样条估计及 LISA TDI 噪声应用
We present a Bayesian P-spline method for estimating the frequency-dependent cross-spectral density matrix of stationary multivariate time series. The inverse spectral matrix is parametrised through its frequency-varying Cholesky decomposition, which guarantees Hermitian positive definiteness at every frequency. Each real log-diagonal entry and each real and imaginary off-diagonal entry is given an independent penalised B-spline prior that controls smoothness. Inference uses…
