不变概率预测AI 解读

Summary In recent years, there has been growing interest in statistical methods that exhibit robust performance under distribution changes between training and test data. While most of the related research focuses on point predictions with the squared error loss, this article turns the focus towards probabilistic predictions, which aim to comprehensively quantify the uncertainty of an outcome variable given covariates. Within a causality-inspired framework, we investigate…

基于秩的序贯独立性检验AI 解读

Summary We consider the problem of independence testing for two univariate random variables in a sequential setting. By leveraging recent developments on safe, anytime-valid inference, we propose a test with time-uniform Type-I error control and derive explicit bounds on the finite-sample performance of the test. We demonstrate the empirical performance of the procedure in comparison to existing sequential and nonsequential independence tests. Furthermore, since the proposed…

高维线性混合模型中随机效应的推断与估计AI 解读

We consider three problems in high-dimensional linear mixed models. Without any assumptions on the design for the fixed effects, we construct asymptotic statistics for testing whether a collection of random effects is zero, derive an asymptotic confidence interval for a single random effect at the parametric rate n, and propose an empirical Bayes estimator for a part of the mean vector in ANOVA type models that performs asymptotically as well as the oracle Bayes estimator.…
