Random Vectors and the Variance{Covariance Matrix
www.math.kent.eduIf is the covariance matrix of a random vector, then for any constant vector ~awe have ~aT ~a 0: That is, satis es the property of being a positive semi-de nite matrix. Proof. ~aT ~ais the variance of a random variable. This suggests the question: Given a symmetric, positive semi-de nite matrix, is it the covariance matrix of some random vector?
The Multivariate Gaussian Distribution - Stanford University
cs229.stanford.edu2 The covariance matrix The concept of the covariance matrix is vital to understanding multivariate Gaussian distributions. Recall that for a pair of random variables X and Y, their covariance is defined as Cov[X,Y] = E[(X −E[X])(Y −E[Y])] = E[XY]−E[X]E[Y]. When working with multiple variables, the covariance matrix provides a succinct ...
