Abstract
Consider the multivariate linear model
where Yi : p × 1 is the observation on the ith individual, Xi : q × p is the design matrix with known elements, β : q × 1 is a vector of unknown regression coefficients, and Ei : p × 1 is the unobservable random error that is usually assumed to be suitably centered and to have a p-variate distribution. A central problem in linear models is estimating the regression vector β. Note that model (9.1) reduces to the univariate regression model when p = 1, which we can write as
where xi is now a q-vector. Model (9.1) becomes the classical multivariate regression, also called MANOVA model, when Xi : q × p is of the special form
where xi : m × 1 and q = mp. Our discussion of the general model will cover both classical cases considered in the literature.
