MN (version 1.0)

Random matrices simulation from the matrix normal distribution: Random matrices simulation from the matrix normal distribution

Description

Random matrices simulation from the matrix normal distribution.

Usage

rmn(k, M, U, V)

Value

A list with k elements, k matrices of dimension \(n \ times p\) each. These are the random matrices drawn from a matrix normal distribution.

Arguments

k

The sample size, the number of matrices to simulate.

M

The mean matrix of the distribution, a numerical matrix of dimensions \(n \times p\).

U

The covariance matrix associated with the rows, a numerical matrix of dimensions \(n \times n\).

V

The covariance matrix associated with the columns, a numerical matrix of dimensions \(p \times p\).
