We present new expressions for the densities and distributions of the largest eigenvalue and the trace of a Beta–Wishart matrix. The series expansions for these expressions involve fewer terms than previously known results. For the trace, we also present a new algorithm that is linear in the size of the matrix and the degree of truncation, which is optimal.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
