GUARANTEED ROOT-MEAN-SQUARE ESTIMATES OF LINEAR MATRIX TRANSFORMATIONS UNDER CONDITIONS OF STATISTICAL UNCERTAINTY

Linear estimation of observations in conditions of various types of interference in order to obtain unbiased estimates is the subject of research in numerous scientific publications. The problem of linear regression analysis in conditions when the elements of vector observations are known matrices that allow small deviations from the calculated ones was studied in previous publications of the authors. Using the technology of pseudo inverse operators, as well as the perturbation method, the problem was solved under the condition that linearly independent matrices are subject to small perturbations. The parameters of the linear estimates were presented in the form of expansions in a small parameter. Over the past decades, solving linear estimation problems under uncertainty has been carried out within the framework of the well-known minimax estimation method. Formally, the problems that arise in this direction are solved in the presence of some spaces for unknown observation parameters, as well as spaces to which observation errors may belong. The coefficients of the linear estimates are determined in the process of optimizing the guaranteed mean-square error of the desired estimate. Thus, the subject of scientific research can be problems of linear estimation of unknown rectangular matrices based on observations from errors with unknown correlation matrices of errors: unknown matrices belong to some bounded set, correlation matrices of random perturbations of the observation vector are unknown, but it is possible to assume cases when they belong to one or another defined bounded set. Some formulations of problems of linear estimation of observations are investigated in the proposed publication. The problem of linear estimation for a vector of observations of a special form is considered, the components of which are known rectangular matrices that are subject to small perturbations. Variants of the problem statement are proposed, which allow obtaining an analytical solution in the first approximation of a small parameter. A test example is presented.
