sample-inv-wishart

incanter.stats

  • (sample-inv-wishart & options)

Returns a p-by-p symmetric distribution drawn from an inverse-Wishart distribution

Options:
:p (default 2) -- number of dimensions of resulting matrix
:df (default p) -- degree of freedoms (aka n), df <= p
:scale (default (identity-matrix p)) -- positive definite matrix (aka V)

Examples:
(use 'incanter.stats)
(sample-inv-wishart :df 10 :p 4)

;; calculate the mean of 1000 wishart matrices, should equal (mult df scale)
(div (reduce plus (for [_ (range 1000)] (sample-wishart :p 4))) 1000)
