Generate n
random matrices, distributed according to the Wishart distribution with parameters Sigma
and df
, W_p(Sigma, df).
rNonsingularWishart(n, df, Sigma, covariance = FALSE, simplify = "array")
integer: the number of replications.
numeric parameter, “degrees of freedom”.
positive definite (\(p\times p\)) “scale” matrix, the matrix parameter of the distribution.
logical on whether a covariance matrix should be generated
logical or character string; should the result be
simplified to a vector, matrix or higher dimensional array if
possible? For sapply
it must be named and not abbreviated.
The default value, TRUE
, returns a vector or matrix if appropriate,
whereas if simplify = "array"
the result may be an
array
of “rank”
(\(=\)length(dim(.))
) one higher than the result
of FUN(X[[i]])
.
A numeric array of dimension p * p * n
, where each array is a positive semidefinite matrix, a realization of the Wishart distribution W_p(Sigma, df)
If X_1, ..., X_m is a sample of m independent multivariate Gaussians with mean vector 0, and covariance matrix Sigma, the distribution of M = X'X is W_p(Sigma, m).
