Optimization of Functions of Matrices with Applications to Statistical Problems.
Abstract
The paper reviews some methods of optimizing functions of vectors and matrices subject to some restrictions and develops techniques for solving them without using the calculus of matrix derivatives. Their application to a number of statistical problems in linear estimation and multivariate analysis is illustrated. (Author)
