Instead of $\hat{\beta}$, we will use a shrinkage estimator for $\beta$, $\tilde{\beta}$, which is $\hat{\beta}$ shrunk by a factor of *a* (where *a* is a constant greater than one). Then: Squared loss: $E(\hat{\beta}-1)^2 = Var(\hat{\beta})$.
In this work we construct an optimal linear shrinkage estimator for the covari-ance matrix in high dimensions. The recent results from the random matrix theory allow us to nd the asymptotic deterministic equivalents of the op-timal shrinkage intensities and estimate them consistently. The developed
We show how a particular shrinkage estimator, the ridge regression estimator, can reduce variance and estimation error in cases where the predictors are highly collinear.
To quantify estimation error, we plot the likelihood of unseen data for different values of the shrinkage parameter. We also show the choices by cross-validation, or with the LedoitWolf and OAS estimates.
Mar 1, 2016 · In this paper, we focus on simple linear shrinkage estimators and provide a reasonable method for estimating the optimal weights in nonparametric setups. It is noted that linear shrinkage estimators neither minimax nor admissible even for low dimensional cases.

For estimation of under squared error loss, we have shown that the linear shrinkage estimator (x) =w 0 + (1 w)x is inadmissible if w 62[0; 1], admissible if w 2 (0; 1). What remains to evaluate is the admissibility for w 2 f0; 1g.

Jul 1, 2018 · This paper is concerned with the linear shrinkage estimation of covariance matrices. Given an estimate R of the covariance matrix, a linear shrinkage estimate is constructed as (1) Σ ^ ρ, τ = ρ R + τ T 0, where T 0 is the shrinkage target and ρ and τ are nonnegative shrinkage coefficients.
