高维数据的自适应检验AI 解读

In this article, we propose a class of Lq-norm based U-statistics for a family of global testing problems related to high-dimensional data. This includes testing of mean vector and its spatial sign, simultaneous testing of linear model coefficients, and testing of component-wise independence for high-dimensional observations, among others. Under the null hypothesis, we derive asymptotic normality and independence between Lq-norm based U-statistics for several qs under mild…

网络的分组稀疏 β 模型AI 解读

Sparsity, homogeneity, and heterogeneity are three important characteristics of many real-life networks. The recently proposed Sparse β-Model divides nodes into core ones and peripheral ones to accommodate sparsity, but the parameters of core nodes are assumed to be of similar magnitude, which may not be in line with applications. In this article, we propose the Group Sparse β-Model that splits the core nodes into groups and assumes different orders of magnitude of…

利用大规模在线产品评分网络进行客户定位的模型式协同聚类AI 解读

Given the widely available online customer ratings on products, the individual-level rating prediction and clustering of customers and products are increasingly important for sellers to create targeting strategies for expanding the customer base and improving product ratings.However, the massive missing data problem is a significant challenge for modeling online product ratings.To address this issue, we propose a new co-clustering methodology based on a bipartite network…

随机对象的共形推断AI 解读

We develop an inferential tool kit for analyzing object-valued responses, which correspond to data situated in general metric spaces, paired with Euclidean predictors within the conformal framework. To this end, we introduce conditional profile average transport costs, where we compare distance profiles that correspond to one-dimensional distributions of probability mass falling into balls of increasing radius through the optimal transport cost when moving from one distance…

处理交互作用与内生参与AI 解读

ABSTRACT We study causal inference in randomized experiments (or quasi‐experiments) following a factorial design. There are two treatments, denoted and , and units are randomly assigned to one of four categories: treatment alone, treatment alone, joint treatment, or none. Allowing for endogenous non‐compliance with the two binary instruments representing the intended assignment, as well as unrestricted interference across the two treatments, we derive the causal…

特质波动率的横截面依赖AI 解读

This paper introduces an econometric framework for analyzing cross-sectional dependence in the idiosyncratic volatilities of assets using high frequency data. We first consider the estimation of standard measures of dependence in the idiosyncratic volatilities such as covariances and correlations. Naive estimators of these measures are biased due to the use of the error-laden estimates of idiosyncratic volatilities. We provide bias-corrected estimators and the relevant…

高维时间序列时变网络的估计AI 解读

We explore time-varying networks for high-dimensional locally stationary time series, using the large VAR model framework with both the transition and (error) precision matrices evolving smoothly over time. Two types of time-varying graphs are investigated: one containing directed edges of Granger causality linkages, and the other containing undirected edges of partial correlation linkages. Under the sparse structural assumption, we propose a penalised local linear method…

多维索引数据的经验似然AI 解读

This paper develops a general methodology to conduct statistical inference for observations indexed by multiple sets of entities. We propose a novel multiway empirical likelihood statistic that converges to a chi-square distribution under the non-degenerate case, where corresponding Hoeffding type decomposition is dominated by linear terms. Our methodology is related to the notion of jackknife empirical likelihood but the leave-out pseudo values are constructed by leaving…

用于宏观经济分析的贝叶斯神经网络AI 解读

Macroeconomic data is characterized by a limited number of observations (small T ), many time series (big K ) but also by featuring temporal dependence. Neural networks, by contrast, are designed for datasets with millions of observations and covariates. In this paper, we develop Bayesian neural networks (BNNs) that are well-suited for handling datasets commonly used for macroeconomic analysis in policy institutions. Our approach avoids extensive specification searches…

异质节点网络向量自回归的联合估计与分组识别AI 解读

Individuals or companies in a large social or financial network often display rather heterogeneous behaviors for various reasons. In this work, we propose a network vector autoregressive model with a latent group structure to model heterogeneous dynamic patterns observed from network nodes, for which group-wise network effects and time-invariant fixed-effects can be naturally incorporated. In our framework, the model parameters and network node memberships can be…

GeoWarp：通过扭曲空间过程推断海底沉积物性质AI 解读

For offshore structures like wind turbines, subsea infrastructure, pipelines, and cables, it is crucial to quantify the properties of the seabed sediments at a proposed site. However, data collection offshore is costly, so analysis of the seabed sediments must be made from measurements that are spatially sparse. Adding to this challenge, the structure of the seabed sediments exhibits both nonstationarity and anisotropy. To address these issues, we propose GeoWarp, a…

网络时间序列中的欧氏镜像与动态变化AI 解读

Analyzing changes in network evolution is central to statistical network inference. We consider a dynamic network model in which each node has an associated time-varying low-dimensional latent vector of feature data, and connection probabilities are functions of these vectors. Under mild assumptions, the evolution of latent vectors exhibits low-dimensional manifold structure under a suitable distance. This distance can be approximated by a measure of separation between the…

美国强雷暴环境的时空极值AI 解读

Severe thunderstorms cause substantial economic and human losses in the United States. Simultaneoushigh values of convective available potential energy (CAPE) and storm relative helicity (SRH) are favorable tosevere weather, and both they and the composite variable PROD = √CAPE × SRH can be used as indicatorsof severe thunderstorm activity. Their extremal spatial dependence exhibits temporal non-stationarity dueto seasonality and large-scale atmospheric signals such as El…

用于边界层速度预测的物理约束深度双储备池网络AI 解读

When a fluid flows over a solid surface, it creates a thin boundary layer where the flow velocity is influenced by the surface through viscosity, and can transition from laminar to turbulent at sufficiently high speeds. Understanding and forecasting the fluid dynamics under these conditions is one of the most challenging scientific problems in fluid dynamics. It is therefore of high interest to formulate models able to capture the nonlinear spatio-temporal velocity structure…

Wasserstein 生成对抗网络潜在空间的自适应学习AI 解读

Generative models based on latent variables, such as generative adversarial networks (GANs) and variational auto-encoders (VAEs), have gained lots of interests due to their impressive performance in many fields. However, many data such as natural images usually do not populate the ambient Euclidean space but instead reside in a lower-dimensional manifold. Thus an inappropriate choice of the latent dimension fails to uncover the structure of the data, possibly resulting in…

用于网络分析的稀疏 β 回归模型AI 解读

For statistical analysis of network data, the β-model has emerged as a useful tool, thanks to its flexibility in incorporating nodewise heterogeneity and theoretical tractability. To generalize the β-model, this article proposes the Sparse β-Regression Model (S β RM) that unites two research themes developed recently in modeling homophily and sparsity. In particular, we employ differential heterogeneity that assigns weights only to important nodes and propose penalized…

网络两样本比较的最优检验AI 解读

We are interested in the problem of two-sample network hypothesis testing: given two networks with the same set of nodes, we wish to test whether the underlying Bernoulli probability matrices of the two networks are the same or not. We propose Interlacing Balance Measure (IBM) as a new two-sample testing approach. We consider the Degree-Corrected Mixed-Membership (DCMM) model for undirected networks, where we allow severe degree heterogeneity, mixed-memberships, flexible…

整合局部与全局信息的模型无关图神经网络AI 解读

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved promising performance in a variety of graph-focused tasks. Despite their success, however, existing GNNs suffer from two significant limitations: a lack of interpretability in their results due to their black-box nature, and an inability to learn representations of varying orders. To tackle these issues, we propose a novel Model-agnostic Graph Neural Network (MaGNet) framework, which is able to effectively integrate information of…

高维点过程网络的统计推断AI 解读

Fueled in part by recent applications in neuroscience, the multivariate Hawkes process has become a popular tool for modeling the network of interactions among high-dimensional point process data. While evaluating the uncertainty of the network estimates is critical in scientific applications, existing methodological and theoretical work has primarily addressed estimation. To bridge this gap, we develop a new statistical inference procedure for high-dimensional Hawkes…

严重度异质性下的最优网络成员归属估计AI 解读

Real networks often have severe degree heterogeneity, with maximum, average, and minimum node degrees differing significantly. This paper examines the impact of degree heterogeneity on statistical limits of network data analysis. Introducing the empirical heterogeneity distribution (EHD) under a degree-corrected mixed membership model, we show that the optimal rate of mixed membership estimation is an explicit functional of the EHD. This result confirms that severe degree…

空间变系数广义部分线性模型的分布式异质性学习AI 解读

Spatial heterogeneity is of great importance in social, economic, and environmental science studies. The spatially varying coefficient model is a popular and effective spatial regression technique to address spatial heterogeneity. However, accounting for heterogeneity comes at the cost of reducing model parsimony. To balance flexibility and parsimony, this article develops a class of generalized partially linear spatially varying coefficient models which allow the inclusion…

符号网络的总体层面平衡AI 解读

Statistical network models are useful for understanding the underlying formation mechanism and characteristics of complex networks. However, statistical models for signed networks have been largely unexplored. In signed networks, there exist both positive (e.g., like, trust) and negative (e.g., dislike, distrust) edges, which are commonly seen in real-world scenarios. The positive and negative edges in signed networks lead to unique structural patterns, which pose challenges…

This article unifies existing systemic risk measures to present a novel intersecting notion of systemic contagion which captures institutional risk transmission amplified by a distressed financial system. The article constructs a test statistic for systemic contagion which demonstrates its systemic capacity in testing contagion under a series of numerical experiments. Using the new test the article constructs a forward-looking directed network to empirically measure the…

随机几何对象时间序列的形状分析统计框架AI 解读

We introduce a new framework to analyze shape descriptors that capture the geometric features of an ensemble of point clouds. At the core of our approach is the point of view that the data arises as sampled recordings from a metric space-valued stochastic process, possibly of nonstationary nature, thereby integrating geometric data analysis into the realm of functional time series analysis. Our framework allows for natural incorporation of spatial-temporal dynamics,…
