Statistical inference of covariance change points in gaussian model

Jie Chen, Arjun K. Gupta · Statistics · 2003

In this paper, we study the testing and estimation of multiple covariance change points for a sequence of m-dimensional (m > 1) Gaussian random vectors by using the Schwarz information criterion (SIC). The unbiased SIC is also obtained. The asymptotic null distribution of the test statistic is derived. The result is applied to a simulated bivariate normal vector sequence (m = 2), and changes are successfully detected.
