The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, Vol. 27, No. 3 (Sep., 1956), pp. 737-748 (12 pages) The sampling variance of the least squares estimates of the components of variance in an unbalanced ...
The distribution of genetic variation among multiple traits is a key determinant of how a population will respond to selection (Lande, 1979; Schluter, 1996; Arnold et al., 2001). For the prediction of ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Genetic potential for evolutionary change and covariational constraints are typically summarized as the genetic variance-covariance matrix G, ...
This paper proposes a novel shrinkage estimator for high-dimensional covariance matrices by extending the Oracle Approximating Shrinkage (OAS) of Chen et al. (2009) to target the diagonal elements of ...
The estimated covariance matrix of the parameter estimates is computed as the inverse Hessian matrix, and for unconstrained problems it should be positive definite. If the final parameter estimates ...
