Review: Manipulating Multivariate Gaussians
1 point possible (graded)
Recall that a multivariate Gaussian N(μ⃗ ,Σ) is a random vector Z=[Z(1),…,Z(n)]T where Z(1),…,Z(n) are jointly Gaussian , meaning that the density of Z is given by the joint pdf
f:Rn | → | R | |||
Z | ↦ | 1(2π)n/2det(Σ)−−−−−−√exp(−12(Z−μ⃗ )TΣ−1(Z−μ⃗ )) |
where
μ⃗ i | =E[Z(i)],(vector mean). | |||
Σij | =Cov(Z(i),Z(j))(positive definite covariance matrix). |
Suppose that Z∼N(0,Σ). Let M denote an n×n matrix.
What is the distribution of MZ?
