摘要
Let F(pxp) have the multivariate F-distribution with a scale matrix DELTA and degrees of freedom n1 and n2. In this paper the problem of estimating eigenvalues of DELTA is considered. By constructing the improved orthogonally invariant estimators DELTA-triple-overdot(F) of DELTA, which are analogous to Haff-type estimators of a normal covariance matrix, new estimators of eigenvalues of DELTA are given. This is because the eigenvalues of DELTA-tripple-overdot-(F) are taken as estimates of the eigenvalues of DELTA.
