We suggest a method for estimating a covariance matrix on the basis of a sample of vectors drawn from a multivariate normal distribution. In particular, we penalize the likelihood with a lasso penalty ...

We introduce a constrained empirical loss minimization framework for estimating highdimensional sparse precision matrices and propose a new loss function, called the D-trace loss, for that purpose. A ...

Sparse matrix computations are pivotal to advancing high-performance scientific applications, particularly as modern numerical simulations and data analyses demand efficient management of large, ...
