Local quadratic convergence of iterated correlation matrices: bounds and counterexamples
Ishrak Alhajj Hassan
Kruskal's unpublished manuscript on CONCOR gives a local argument for convergence of successive correlations to a prescribed two-class sign pattern. We identify a failure in its st…

Finite-Step Bounds for Iterated Correlation Matrices
Ishrak AlhajjHassan
We establish finite-step probabilistic upper bounds on the contraction ratios for iterated Pearson correlation dynamics. Let be the sequence ge…
