dc.description.abstract | The classical Wishart distribution, was first derived byWishart (1928) as the distribution of the maximum likelihood estimator of the covariance matrix of the multivariate normal distribution. It is a matrix variate generalization of the gamma distribution. In high dimensional settings,Wishart distributions defined within the framework of graphical models are of particular importance.
