Section 4 is devoted to a closer inspec-tion of the model from different theoretical standpoints. In section 5 we verify empirically if the algorithm leads to a difference in performance. Section 6 concludes the study. 2

A Practitioner’s Guide to Cluster-Robust Inference

Section V considers clustering when there is more than one way to do so and these ways are not nested in each other. Section VI considers how to adjust inference when there are just a few clusters as, without adjustment, test statistics based on the cluster-robust standard errors over-reject and confidence intervals are too narrow. Section VII

Robust Principal Component Analysis?

Their results are of a somewhat different nature; see Section 1.5 for a detailed explanation. Applications. There are many important applications in which the data under study can naturally be modeled as a low-rank plus a sparse contribution. All the statisti-cal applications, in which robust principal components are sought, of course fit our ...

In the last experiment in Section 4.5 we incorporate audio from the new VoxCeleb dataset [19] into both extractor and PLDA train-ing lists. The dataset consists of videos from 1,251 celebrity speak-ers.
