Abstract
The paper proposes a cross-validated linear shrinkage estimation for population covariance matrices. Moreover we also propose a novel weighted estimator based on the thresholding and shrinkage methods for high dimensional datasets. It is applicable to a wider scope of different structures of covariance matrices. Some theoretical results about the cross-validated shrinkage method and weighted covariance estimation methods are also developed. The finite-sample performance of the proposed methods is illustrated through extensive simulations and real data analysis.
