利用重复数据的次序统计量回归进行非参数误差下的经验贝叶斯均值估计AI 解读

We study empirical Bayes estimation of the effect sizes of $N$ units from $K$ noisy observations on each unit. We show that it is possible to achieve near-Bayes optimal mean squared error, without any assumptions or knowledge about the effect size distribution or the noise. The noise distribution can be heteroskedastic and vary arbitrarily from unit to unit. Our proposal, which we call Aurora, leverages the replication inherent in the $K$ observations per unit and recasts…

含协变量的双成分混合模型AI 解读

In this article, we study a generalization of the two-groups model in the presence of covariates—a problem that has recently received much attention in the statistical literature due to its applicability in multiple hypotheses testing problems. The model we consider allows for infinite dimensional parameters and offers flexibility in modeling the dependence of the response on the covariates. We discuss the identifiability issues arising in this model and systematically study…

高斯位置混合密度的非参数极大似然估计及其高斯去噪应用AI 解读

We study the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (NPMLE) for estimating Gaussian location mixture densities in $d$-dimensions from independent observations. Unlike usual likelihood-based methods for fitting mixtures, NPMLEs are based on convex optimization. We prove finite sample results on the Hellinger accuracy of every NPMLE. Our results imply, in particular, that every NPMLE achieves near parametric risk (up to logarithmic multiplicative factors) when the true…
