用于高斯近似的自归一化 Cramér 型中等偏差定理AI 解读

Berry–Esseen type bounds for Gaussian approximation of standardized sums have been extensively studied under exponential type moment conditions. In this paper, a Cramér type moderate deviation theorem is established for self-normalized Gaussian approximation under finite moment conditions. More specifically, let X1,X2,…,Xn be i.i.d. Rp-valued random vectors with zero means. Let Sn,j=∑ i=1nXij and Vn,j2=∑i=1nXij2. We show that if the correlation matrix of X1 is Ip and the…

一般自标准化和的精细 Cramér 型中偏差定理及相关变量与缩尾均值应用AI 解读

Let {(Xi,Yi)}i=1n be a sequence of independent bivariate random vectors. In this paper, we establish a refined Cramér-type moderate deviation theorem for the general self-normalized sum ∑ i=1nXi/(∑i=1nYi2)1/2, which unifies and extends the classical Cramér (Actual. Sci. Ind. 736 (1938) 5–23) theorem and the self-normalized Cramér-type moderate deviation theorems by Jing, Shao and Wang (Ann. Probab. 31 (2003) 2167–2215) as well as the further refined version by Wang (J.…

高维距离相关推断的渐近分布AI 解读

Distance correlation has become an increasingly popular tool for detecting the nonlinear dependence between a pair of potentially high-dimensional random vectors. Most existing works have explored its asymptotic distributions under the null hypothesis of independence between the two random vectors when only the sample size or the dimensionality diverges. Yet its asymptotic null distribution for the more realistic setting when both sample size and dimensionality diverge in…

发现是否虚假？最大虚假相关的分布及应用AI 解读

Over the last two decades, many exciting variable selection methods have been developed for finding a small group of covariates that are associated with the response from a large pool. Can the discoveries from these data mining approaches be spurious due to high dimensionality and limited sample size? Can our fundamental assumptions about the exogeneity of the covariates needed for such variable selection be validated with the data? To answer these questions, we need to…

学生化两样本 U 统计量的 Cramér 型中等偏差及应用AI 解读

Two-sample $U$-statistics are widely used in a broad range of applications, including those in the fields of biostatistics and econometrics. In this paper, we establish sharp Cramér-type moderate deviation theorems for Studentized two-sample $U$-statistics in a general framework, including the two-sample $t$-statistic and Studentized Mann–Whitney test statistic as prototypical examples. In particular, a refined moderate deviation theorem with second-order accuracy is…

依赖情形下自归一化的 Cramér 型中等偏差AI 解读

We establish a Cramér-type moderate deviation result for self-normalized sums of weakly dependent random variables, where the moment requirement is much weaker than the non-self-normalized counterpart. The range of the moderate deviation is shown to depend on the moment condition and the degree of dependence of the underlying processes. We consider three types of self-normalization: the equal-block scheme, the big-block-small-block scheme and the interlacing scheme.…

大规模 t 检验中错误发现率控制的相变与正则化自助法AI 解读

Applying the Benjamini and Hochberg (B–H) method to multiple Student’s $t$ tests is a popular technique for gene selection in microarray data analysis. Given the nonnormality of the population, the true $p$-values of the hypothesis tests are typically unknown. Hence it is common to use the standard normal distribution $N(0,1)$, Student’s $t$ distribution $t_{n-1}$ or the bootstrap method to estimate the $p$-values. In this paper, we prove that when the population has the…

Hotelling T² 统计量的 Cramér 中偏差定理及全局检验应用AI 解读

A Cramér moderate deviation theorem for Hotelling’s $T^{2}$-statistic is proved under a finite $(3+\delta)$th moment. The result is applied to large scale tests on the equality of mean vectors and is shown that the number of tests can be as large as $e^{o(n^{1/3})}$ before the chi-squared distribution calibration becomes inaccurate. As an application of the moderate deviation results, a global test on the equality of $m$ mean vectors based on the maximum of Hotelling’s $T^{2}$…

样本协方差矩阵谱密度函数的非参数估计：初步研究AI 解读

The density function of the limiting spectral distribution of general sample covariance matrices is usually unknown. We propose to use kernel estimators which are proved to be consistent. A simulation study is also conducted to show the performance of the estimators.

Cox 回归模型的后验适定性与计算：缺失协变量应用AI 解读

In this paper, we carry out an in-depth theoretical investigation of Bayesian inference for the Cox regression model. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for posterior propriety of the regression coefficient, β, in Cox's partial likelihood, which can be obtained as the limiting marginal posterior distribution of β through the specification of a gamma process prior for the cumulative baseline hazard and a uniform improper prior for β. We also examine necessary…

区分长程依赖与均值变化AI 解读

We develop a testing procedure for distinguishing between a long-range dependent time series and a weakly dependent time series with change-points in the mean. In the simplest case, under the null hypothesis the time series is weakly dependent with one change in mean at an unknown point, and under the alternative it is long-range dependent. We compute the CUSUM statistic Tn, which allows us to construct an estimator k̂ of a change-point. We then compute the statistic Tn,1…

无矩条件下 Student t 统计量的鞍点近似AI 解读

A saddlepoint approximation of the Student’s t-statistic was derived by Daniels and Young [Biometrika 78 (1991) 169–179] under the very stringent exponential moment condition that requires that the underlying density function go down at least as fast as a Normal density in the tails. This is a severe restriction on the approximation’s applicability. In this paper we show that this strong exponential moment restriction can be completely dispensed with, that is, saddlepoint…

随机缺失协变量回归模型的后验正常化与极大似然估计存在性AI 解读

Characterizing model identifiability in the presence of missing covariate data is a very important issue in missing data problems. In this article, we characterize the propriety of the posterior distribution of the regression coefficients for some general classes of regression models, including the class of generalized linear models (GLM's) and parametric survival models with right-censored data. Toward this goal, we derive some very general and easy-to-check conditions for…

二元响应数据的一类新偏斜链接模型AI 解读

The logit, probit, and student t-links are widely used in modeling dichotomous quantal response data. Most of the commonly used link functions are symmetric, except the complementary log-log link. However, in some applications the overall fit can be significantly improved by the use of an asymmetric link. In this article we propose a new skewed link model for analyzing binary response data with covariates. Introducing a skewed distribution for the underlying latent variable,…

估计归一化常数比值的蒙特卡洛方法AI 解读

Recently, estimating ratios of normalizing constants has played an important role in Bayesian computations. Applications of estimating ratios of normalizing constants arise in many aspects of Bayesian statistical inference. In this article, we present an overview and discuss the current Monte Carlo methods for estimating ratios of normalizing constants. Then we propose a new ratio importance sampling method and establish its theoretical framework. We find that the ratio…

M 估计量的一般 Bahadur 表示及其在非随机设计线性回归中的应用AI 解读

We obtain strong Bahadur representations for a general class of M-estimators that satisfies $\Sigma_i \psi (x_i, \theta) = o(\delta_n)$, where the $x_i$'s are independent but not necessarily identically distributed random variables. The results apply readily to M-estimators of regression with nonstochastic designs. More specifically, we consider the minimum $L_p$ distance estimators, bounded influence GM-estimators and regression quantiles. Under appropriate design…

标准化 U 统计量最大值的极限定理及其应用AI 解读

We show that the maximally selected standardized U-statistic goes in distribution to an infinite sum of weighted chi-square random variables in the degenerate case. The result is applied to the detection of possible changes in the distribution of a sequence observation.
