Why isn't the least squares predictor $\Phi(\Phi^\top\Phi)^{-1}\Phi^\top$ simply the identit... [duplicate]

is, $$\hat y = \Phi(\Phi^\top\Phi)^{-1}\Phi^\top y$$ But why isn't $\Phi(\Phi^\top\Phi)^{-1}\Phi^\top$ simply the identity matrix? … Observe, $\Phi(\Phi^\top\Phi)^{-1}\Phi^\top = \Phi(\Phi^{-1}{\Phi^\top}^{-1})\Phi^\top = I I = I$ Thanks! …

Why is the Gaussian Copula $C_P(u_1, \ldots, u_d) = \boldsymbol{\Phi}_P(\Phi^{-1}(u_1), \ldo...

From Wikipedia, Gaussian Copula, it states that a Gaussian Copula can be defined as: $$ C_P(u_1, \ldots, u_d) = \boldsymbol{\Phi}_P(\Phi^{-1}(u_1), \ldots, \Phi^{-1}(u_d)), $$ where $\boldsymbol{\Phi … In that respect, it appears that for simulation, we are doing something like: $$ C_P(u_1, \ldots, u_d) = \boldsymbol{\Phi}_P(\Phi(u_1), \ldots, \Phi(u_d)), $$ instead. …

MLE phi derivation

(y_i) $$ take derivative with respect to $\phi$ and set to 0 $$ \sum_i^n\frac{y_i\phi^{y_i-1}(1-\phi)^{1-y_i}-(\phi^{y_i})(1-y_i)(1-\phi)^{-y_i}}{\phi^{y_i}(1-\phi)^{1-y_i}} = 0 $$ there are 2 cases $y_i … had $$ y=\begin{bmatrix}1\\1\\0\end{bmatrix} $$ then we have $$ \frac{1}{\phi}+\frac{1}{\phi}-\frac{1}{1-\phi}=0 $$ $$ \phi=\frac{2}{3} $$ which is correct and what the indicator function would give but …

How is $P(|X| > t) \le E(\phi(X))/ \phi(t)$?

Assume that $\phi(\cdot)$ is an increasing function on $(0,\infty)$. Show that for each $t>0$, $P(|X| \ge t) \le E_\phi(X) / \phi(t)$. … The answer states that $P(|X| > t) \le 2E(\phi(X))/ \phi(t)$, but a comment implies that $P(|X| > t) \le E(\phi(X))/ \phi(t)$, which is what we are actually trying to show. …

Prove that $k(u, v) = \tilde{k}(\phi(u), \phi(v))$ [closed]

Given that $\phi : \mathcal{X} → \mathcal{X}′$, prove that $k(u, v) = \tilde{k}(\phi(u), \phi(v))$. … I've seen similar proofs where if $\phi : \mathcal{X} → \mathcal{X}$, the transformation is simply in a transformation into a different kernel in the same domain (e.g. here, page 18). …

Why is $\mathbf\Phi^{\top}\mathbf\Phi$ a positive definite matrix?

Bishop: Here $\mathbf\Phi$ represents the design matrix and $\beta$ is precision which is positive. My question is: why is $\mathbf\Phi^\top\mathbf\Phi$ a positive definite matrix? … So, can you please help me prove that $\mathbf\Phi^\top\mathbf\Phi$ is positive definite? Thanks a lot. …

$\lim_{x\to\infty}{1-\Phi(x)\over \phi(x)/x}=1$

I have to prove the following: Let $\phi$ and $\Phi$ denote the standard normal density and distribution functions respectively. … Prove that $$\lim_{x\to\infty}{1-\Phi(x)\over \phi(x)/x}=1$$ I am not able to start. $\Phi$ is $\int \phi(x)dx$. How can I calculate the limit without L'Hopital's rule? …

Derivation of the distribution of $\hat{\phi}=[\hat{\phi}_1, \cdots, \hat{\phi}_p]$ in AR(p)...

Problem Derive that the asymptotic distribution of $\hat{\phi}:=[\hat{\phi}_1, \cdots, \hat{\phi}_p]$ follows, $$ \sqrt{n}(\hat{\phi} - \phi) \sim N(0, \sigma_\epsilon^2 \Gamma^{-1}) $$ where $\Gamma … But I cannot proceed to show the result I want, $$ \sqrt{n}(\hat{\phi} - \phi) \sim N(0, \sigma_\epsilon^2 \Gamma^{-1}) $$ …

If $\hat \alpha \sim N(\alpha,\sigma)$, is $E[\phi(\hat \alpha X)] = E[\phi(\alpha X)]$ wher...

Attempt 1: whuber suggestion \begin{align} E[\phi(\hat \alpha X)] & = E[E[\phi(\hat \alpha X)|X]] \\ & \le E[\phi(E[\hat \alpha X|X])] \\ & = E[\phi(X E[\hat \alpha|X])] \\ & = E[\phi(\alpha X)]. … When we do this we get $$ E[\phi(\hat \alpha X)] = E[E[\phi(\hat \alpha X)|X]] = E[E[\phi(\alpha X)|X]] = E[\phi(\alpha X)]. $$ So in this approach, it seems $E[\phi(\hat \alpha X)] = E[\phi(\alpha X)] …

Why can this $(1- \phi L)^{-1}* u_{t}$ be written as $(1+ \phi L+\phi^{2}L + \cdots)* u_{t}$?

I was looking at AR processes in Chris Brooks (2008) and at one point, when deriving the variance of an AR(1) process he writes this part $(1- \phi L)^{-1}* u_{t}$ as $(1+ \phi L+\phi^{2}L + \cdots)* u …

Why do eigenvalues of $\mathbf\Phi^T\mathbf\Phi$ increase with the size of data set?

So $$\mathbf\Phi^T\mathbf\Phi=\bigl(\mathbf\phi(\mathbf x_1),\mathbf\phi(\mathbf x_2),\ldots,\mathbf\phi(\mathbf x_N)\bigr) \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} \mathbf\phi^T(\mathbf x_1)\\ \mathbf\phi^T(\mathbf … x_2)\\ \vdots\\ \mathbf\phi^T(\mathbf x_N) \end{array}} \right) =\sum\limits_{n=1}^N \mathbf\phi(\mathbf x_n)\mathbf\phi^T(\mathbf x_n). …

Does this interpretation $\phi'(x)=-x\phi(x)$ of the normal distribution have any significance?

For the standard normal distribution $\phi(x)$, we can see that $\phi'(x)=-x\phi(x)$. Put differently, $\frac{\mathrm{d}\ln(\phi(x))}{\mathrm{d} x}= -x $. …
