Statistical Tools for Covariance Analysis

v0.5.6 · Sep 21, 2025 · GPL (>= 3)

Description

Covariance is of universal prevalence across various disciplines within statistics. We provide a rich collection of geometric and inferential tools for convenient analysis of covariance structures, topics including distance measures, mean covariance estimator, covariance hypothesis test for one-sample and two-sample cases, and covariance estimation. For an introduction to covariance in multivariate statistical analysis, see Schervish (1987) <doi:10.1214/ss/1177013111>.
