Sentence examples for shrinkage estimate from inspiring English sources

The shrinkage estimate for partial correlation in [7] was formulated specifically for the inference from small sample gene expression data.

Although a shrinkage estimate of partial correlation [7] is computationally fast and well suited for small sample data analysis [8], the inferred interactions are undirected.

The idea is that a shrinkage estimate can replace the covariance matrix for the joint matrix of both the present state and the past state(s), which then leads to the computation for regression coefficients.

However, while this estimate of Σ is (almost) unbiased for an infinitely large dataset, it is known that a more robust overall estimate for Σ can be obtained using a so called shrinkage estimate when the number of data points is small compared to the number of degrees of freedom [58].

A shrinkage estimate of <0.85 would suggest overfitting (13).
