深度近似策略迭代AI 解读

In this paper, we consider deep approximate policy iteration (DAPI) with the Bellman residual minimization in reinforcement learning. In each iteration of DAPI, we apply convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with ReLU activation, called ReLU CNNs, to estimate the fixed point of the Bellman equation by minimizing an unbiased minimax loss. To bound the estimation error in each iteration, we control the statistical and approximation errors using the tools of the empirical…

高维模型的双向同时推断AI 解读

This article proposes a general two-directional simultaneous inference (TOSI) framework for high-dimensional models with a manifest variable or latent variable structure, for example, high-dimensional mean models, high-dimensional sparse regression models, and high-dimensional latent factors models. TOSI performs simultaneous inference on a set of parameters from two directions, one to test whether the assumed zero parameters indeed are zeros and one to test whether exist…

条件抽样的深度生成方法AI 解读

We propose a deep generative approach to sampling from a conditional distribution based on a unified formulation of conditional distribution and generalized nonparametric regression function using the noise-outsourcing lemma. The proposed approach aims at learning a conditional generator, so that a random sample from the target conditional distribution can be obtained by transforming a sample drawn from a reference distribution. The conditional generator is estimated…

超高维混合类型相关变量的广义因子模型AI 解读

As high-dimensional data measured with mixed-type variables gradually become prevalent, it is particularly appealing to represent those mixed-type high-dimensional data using a much smaller set of so-called factors. Due to the limitation of the existing methods for factor analysis that deal with only continuous variables, in this article, we develop a generalized factor model, a corresponding algorithm and theory for ultra-high dimensional mixed types of variables where both…

具有空间依赖与缺失数据的自回归模型AI 解读

We study herein an autoregressive model with spatially correlated error terms and missing data. A logistic regression model with completely observed covariates is used to model the missingness mechanism. An autoregressive model is used to accommodate time series dependence, and a spatial error model is used to capture spatial dependence. To estimate the model, a weighted least squares estimator is developed for the temporal component, and a weighted maximum likelihood…
