基于 Rademacher 复杂度的差异型近似贝叶斯计算后验集中理论AI 解读

There has been an increasing interest on summary-free solutions for approximate Bayesian computation (abc) that replace distances among summaries with discrepancies between the empirical distributions of the observed data and the synthetic samples generated under the proposed parameter values. The success of these strategies has motivated theoretical studies on the limiting properties of the induced posteriors. However, there is still the lack of a theoretical framework for…

基于最大均值差异的 Copula 估计AI 解读

This article deals with robust inference for parametric copula models. Estimation using canonical maximum likelihood might be unstable, especially in the presence of outliers. We propose to use a procedure based on the maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) principle. We derive nonasymptotic oracle inequalities, consistency and asymptotic normality of this new estimator. In particular, the oracle inequality holds without any assumption on the copula family, and can be applied in the…

温度化后验及其变分近似的集中性AI 解读

While Bayesian methods are extremely popular in statistics and machine learning, their application to massive data sets is often challenging, when possible at all. The classical MCMC algorithms are prohibitively slow when both the model dimension and the sample size are large. Variational Bayesian methods aim at approximating the posterior by a distribution in a tractable family $\mathcal{F}$. Thus, MCMC are replaced by an optimization algorithm which is orders of magnitude…

Lipschitz 损失正则化方法的估计界与尖锐预言不等式AI 解读

We obtain estimation error rates and sharp oracle inequalities for regularization procedures of the form \begin{equation*}\hat{f}\in\mathop{\operatorname{argmin}}_{f\in F}\Bigg(\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}\ell_{f}(X_{i},Y_{i})+\lambda \Vert f\Vert \Bigg)\end{equation*} when $\Vert \cdot \Vert $ is any norm, $F$ is a convex class of functions and $\ell$ is a Lipschitz loss function satisfying a Bernstein condition over $F$. We explore both the bounded and sub-Gaussian stochastic…
