摘要
A derivation based on spectral decomposition allows specifying the characteristic function of the trace of a singular or nonsingular, central or noncentral, true or pseudo-Wishart. The trace equals a weighted sum of noncentral chi-squared random variables and constants. We describe computational methods.
