Abstract
In this paper, we consider the estimation of a scatter matrix under entropy loss, quadratic loss, when the samplesx(1),...x(n) are i.i.d. andx(1)∼ECp(μ,Σ,f). With respect to entropy and quadratic losses, we obtain the best estimator ofΣ having the formαSx as well as having the formTxΔTx′, whereSx,Tx andΔ are given in the text, and obtain the minimax estimator ofΣ and the best equivariant estimator ofΣ with respect to the triangular transformations groupLT+(p) (the group consisting of lower triangular matrices with positive diagonal elements). Some related discussion are given as its generalizations.
