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.…

维度增长下离散选择模型的最优线性判别器AI 解读

Manski’s celebrated maximum score estimator for the discrete choice model, which is an optimal linear discriminator, has been the focus of much investigation in both the econometrics and statistics literatures, but its behavior under growing dimension scenarios largely remains unknown. This paper addresses that gap. Two different cases are considered: p grows with n but at a slow rate, that is, p/n→0; and p≫n (fast growth). In the binary response model, we recast Manski’s…

高维模型中渐近最优的置信区域与检验AI 解读

We propose a general method for constructing confidence intervals and statistical tests for single or low-dimensional components of a large parameter vector in a high-dimensional model. It can be easily adjusted for multiplicity taking dependence among tests into account. For linear models, our method is essentially the same as in Zhang and Zhang [J. R. Stat. Soc. Ser. B Stat. Methodol. 76 (2014) 217–242]: we analyze its asymptotic properties and establish its asymptotic…

重新考察泊松复合决策问题AI 解读

The compound decision problem for a vector of independent Poisson random variables with possibly different means has a half-century-old solution. However, it appears that the classical solution needs smoothing adjustment. We discuss three such adjustments. We also present another approach that first transforms the problem into the normal compound decision problem. A simulation study shows the effectiveness of the procedures in improving the performance over that of the…

Lasso 与 Dantzig selector 的统一分析AI 解读

We show that, under a sparsity scenario, the Lasso estimator and the Dantzig selector exhibit similar behavior. For both methods, we derive, in parallel, oracle inequalities for the prediction risk in the general nonparametric regression model, as well as bounds on the ℓp estimation loss for 1≤p≤2 in the linear model when the number of variables can be much larger than the sample size.

面向半参数假设的定制拟合优度检验AI 解读

We introduce a new framework for constructing tests of general semiparametric hypotheses which have nontrivial power on the n−1/2 scale in every direction, and can be tailored to put substantial power on alternatives of importance. The approach is based on combining test statistics based on stochastic processes of score statistics with bootstrap critical values.

一般隐马尔可夫模型极大似然估计量的渐近正态性AI 解读

Hidden Markov models (HMMs) have during the last decade become a widespread tool for modeling sequences of dependent random variables. Inference for such models is usually based on the maximum-likelihood estimator (MLE), and consistency of the MLE for general HMMs was recently proved by Leroux. In this paper we show that under mild conditions the MLE is also asymptotically normal and prove that the observed information matrix is a consistent estimator of the Fisher…
