Cross-covariance operator
= Cross-covariance operator
{title2=$C_{YX}$}
For centered Hilbert-space random variables $X$ and $Y$, the cross-covariance operator is $C_{YX}h=\mathbb E[\langle X,h\rangle Y]$. In the functional linear model $Y=BX+\varepsilon$ with independent centered error, $C_{YX}=BC_X$.
