广义核两样本检验AI 解读

Summary Kernel two-sample tests have been widely used for multivariate data to test equality of distributions. However, existing tests based on mapping distributions into a reproducing kernel Hilbert space mainly target specific alternatives and do not work well for some scenarios when the dimension of the data is moderate to high due to the curse of dimensionality. We propose a new test statistic that makes use of a common pattern under moderate and high dimensions and…

基于最近邻方法的高维正态性检验AI 解读

Many statistical methodologies for high-dimensional data assume the population is normal. Although a few multivariate normality tests have been proposed, to the best of our knowledge, none of them can properly control the Type I error when the dimension is larger than the number of observations. In this work, we propose a novel nonparametric test that uses the nearest neighbor information. The proposed method guarantees the asymptotic Type I error control under the…

含重复观测数据的渐近分布无关变点检测AI 解读

Summary A nonparametric framework for changepoint detection, based on scan statistics utilizing graphs that represent similarities among observations, is gaining attention owing to its flexibility and good performance for high-dimensional and non-Euclidean data sequences. However, this graph-based framework faces challenges when there are repeated observations in the sequence, which is often the case for discrete data such as network data. In this article we extend the…

基于最近邻的序贯变点检测AI 解读

We propose a new framework for the detection of change-points in online, sequential data analysis. The approach utilizes nearest neighbor information and can be applied to sequences of multivariate observations or non-Euclidean data objects, such as network data. Different stopping rules are explored, and one specific rule is recommended due to its desirable properties. An accurate analytic approximation of the average run length is derived for the recommended rule, making…

多元与非欧氏数据的渐近分布无关变点检测AI 解读

We consider the testing and estimation of change-points, locations where the distribution abruptly changes, in a sequence of multivariate or non-Euclidean observations. We study a nonparametric framework that utilizes similarity information among observations, which can be applied to various data types as long as an informative similarity measure on the sample space can be defined. The existing approach along this line has low power and/or biased estimates for change-points…

多元与对象数据的加权边计数两样本检验AI 解读

Two-sample tests for multivariate data and non-Euclidean data are widely used in many fields. Parametric tests are mostly restrained to certain types of data that meets the assumptions of the parametric models. In this article, we study a nonparametric testing procedure that uses graphs representing the similarity among observations. It can be applied to any data types as long as an informative similarity measure on the sample space can be defined. The classic test based on…

用于多变量与对象数据的新型图两样本检验AI 解读

Two-sample tests for multivariate data and especially for non-Euclidean data are not well explored. This article presents a novel test statistic based on a similarity graph constructed on the pooled observations from the two samples. It can be applied to multivariate data and non-Euclidean data as long as a dissimilarity measure on the sample space can be defined, which can usually be provided by domain experts. Existing tests based on a similarity graph lack power either…

基于图的变点检测AI 解读

We consider the testing and estimation of change-points—locations where the distribution abruptly changes—in a data sequence. A new approach, based on scan statistics utilizing graphs representing the similarity between observations, is proposed. The graph-based approach is nonparametric, and can be applied to any data set as long as an informative similarity measure on the sample space can be defined. Accurate analytic approximations to the significance of graph-based scan…
