On an equivariant estimate of the density of a matrix normal distribution

  • V. M. Kondakov
Point and Interval Estimation

Abstract

An optimal equivariant Bayes estimate of the density of a matrix normal distribution is obtained. This estimate is applied to the construction of the optimal Bayes group classification rule.
