高维混合模型的贝叶斯蒸馏聚类AI 解读

Latent subgroup analysis is central to fields such as genomics, precision medicine, and social science, where the goal is to identify heterogeneous populations with distinct covariate structures or response behaviors. Mixture models provide a natural probabilistic framework for this task, representing the data-generating distribution as a weighted combination of subgroup-specific laws with unobserved labels. In high-dimensional regimes, these analyses face significant…

带节点乘性效应的网络潜在空间模型AI 解读

Latent space models represent network nodes as points in a geometric space, with connection probabilities determined by distances between latent positions under a fixed metric, typically Euclidean, spherical, or hyperbolic. We generalize the classical formulation by introducing nodal multiplicative effects motivated by a local deformation of the latent metric. This modification approximates a conformal deformation of the metric tensor while preserving the logistic predictor…

尖峰协方差结构下高维无岭最小二乘插值的预测风险AI 解读

This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of the out-of-sample prediction risk of the high-dimensional ridgeless least-squares estimator when the feature dimension $p$ and the sample size $n$ grow proportionally. We consider a generalized spiked population covariance model with multiple latent factors, where the number of spiked eigenvalues may remain finite or increase with $n$, and the spiked eigenvalues may be bounded or diverge at arbitrary rates. Beyond…

发育分叉附近 RNA 速度图正则化的统计理论AI 解读

Graph-based regularization is widely used to stabilize noisy RNA-velocity estimates by encouraging transcriptionally similar cells to share similar velocity vectors. Near developmental bifurcations, however, proximity-based graphs may connect cells from distinct daughter lineages, reducing estimation variance at the cost of attenuating biologically meaningful lineage-specific dynamics. We formulate graph-regularized RNA velocity as a statistical estimation problem on a…

方差异质性下基于非线性收缩的气候变化检测与归因指纹法AI 解读

Detection and attribution of climate change relies on fingerprinting--a linear errors-in-variables regression framework in which both predictors and responses exhibit internal variability governed by a proportional covariance structure, subject to a variability inflation factor. Accurate estimation of the scaling factors (regression coefficients) depends on inferring the precision matrix of the regression errors from limited climate model control runs. In high-dimensional…

方法选择如何改变统计推断：HIV试验中基线两阶段法与贝叶斯纵向—生存联合模型的比较AI 解读

The two-stage approach and Bayesian joint modeling are commonly used to analyze longitudinal biomarker measurements together with time-to-event outcomes. Using data from an HIV clinical trial of 467 patients with repeated CD4 measurements and all-cause mortality as the survival outcome, we compared a baseline two-stage approach with a Bayesian joint model. The two-stage analysis fitted a linear mixed-effects model and included each patient's predicted baseline CD4 value as a…

带加权 IPW 因子与 KRR 惩罚函数的自适应 LassoAI 解读

In this paper, we first consider a Lasso estimator incorporating a weighted IPW factor,and obtain certain conditions for the Lasso variable selection to be consistent or inconsistent. Then we provide a modified version of the adaptive Lasso equipped with a weighted IPW factor and a KRR penalty function, establishing that the proposed adaptive Lasso possesses the Oracle property. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed adaptive Lasso exhibits near-minimax…

用于成分回归的图自适应马蹄先验AI 解读

Compositional predictors, such as microbiome abundances, pose unique challenges in variable selection due to their unit-sum constraint and inherent dependencies. Existing approaches often rely on fixed association graphs derived from phylogenetic or ecological distances, which may not reflect outcome-relevant relationships. We propose GRACE (GRaph-Adaptive horseshoe for Compositional rEgression), a fully Bayesian framework that enforces compositional constraints, performs…

恢复潜变量的非线性函数：合理值神经网络框架AI 解读

When factor scores replace true latent scores in nonlinear prediction, measurement error attenuates the recoverable variance of any $k$th-order component of the regression function by $ρ^k$ -- the $k$th power of the score's coefficient of determination -- for any linear score type. This study derives the bound via Hermite polynomial expansion and proposes PV-ANN -- plausible values (posterior draws preserving latent variance) combined with artificial neural networks…

半连续结果的潜在空间统计学习框架：正则化偏差与边界稳定优化AI 解读

Semicontinuous outcomes characterized by an exact zero mass and heavy-tailed continuous distributions challenge empirical risk modeling and machine learning. Compound Poisson-Gamma Tweedie processes impose a rigid mean-variance coupling that distorts zero-mass probabilities under extreme tail dispersion, flattening continuous density and reducing extreme-risk discrimination. Furthermore, heuristic post-hoc target capping introduces systematic bias while leaving loss…

可再生高维期望损失回归AI 解读

Expected Shortfall (ES) has become a core coherent risk measure in finance and statistics, and high-dimensional ES regression is crucial for characterizing heterogeneous tail risk with massive covariates. Existing offline methods for high-dimensional ES regression rely on access to full data, which fails under streaming data scenarios with sequential batch arrival and limited storage. To address this issue, this paper proposes a renewable estimation and inference framework…

相关分类结果的多变量多项Logit模型与ANOVA分解AI 解读

In medical research, patients often have multiple interdependent outcomes, such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and pain among trauma survivors. Most existing research uses multinomial regression to analyze these interdependent outcomes separately, which ignores correlations between concurrent conditions. This omission may lead to loss of information and reduced predictive accuracy. Accounting for correlations between multiple categorical outcomes…

协变量漂移下岭回归的合并与集成比较AI 解读

Datasets in many settings naturally partition into clusters arising from sub-populations, batch effects, or aggregation across multiple sources. A common response to such heterogeneity is to ensemble learners trained on each cluster rather than fit a single model to the pooled data. Prior work motivating such approaches has typically considered settings in which both the covariate distribution and the conditional outcome model differ across clusters; the role of…

基于小波的分布式数据稀疏主成分分析AI 解读

The large volume of data and concerns about data privacy have motivated the development of techniques for distributed data, a problem also known as federated learning. In this scenario, sub-samples of the data are divided across different machines, and statistics must be computed over that data without direct access to the full sample. Johnstone & Lu (2009, JASA) show that principal component analysis (PCA) is statistically inconsistent in the high-dimensional regime, and…

协变量漂移下的非参数拟合优度检验AI 解读

This paper develops procedures for nonparametric goodness-of-fit testing under covariate shift, where labelled data are drawn from a source population but goodness-of-fit is evaluated for a target population. The distribution mismatch is quantified by either a bounded moment condition or a sub-exponential tail condition on the target-to-source density ratio. Our method combines truncated importance-weighting kernel ridge regression with a multiplier bootstrap to construct…

经典与Berkson混合测量误差下的多项式回归AI 解读

A polynomial structural regression model is studied, where the covariate is observed with a mixture of the classical and Berkson measurement errors. Both variances of the classical and Berkson errors, as well as some of their higher moments are assumed to be known. Without normality assumptions, consistent estimators of model parameters are constructed using the Corrected Score method, and conditions for their asymptotic normality are given. Under mild conditions, we found…

基于Kronecker结构稀疏逆Cholesky的张量协方差估计AI 解读

High-dimensional multi-way (tensor) data pose significant challenges for covariance estimation due to the curse of dimensionality. We introduce a unified framework for scalable estimation of tensor covariances based on a Kronecker-structured sparse inverse Cholesky (KSIC) projection. Our approach is grounded in the geometry of information projection, defining the estimator as the moment-matching projection of a target distribution onto a manifold characterized by sparse,…

无序对空间上的协方差核：理论与网络数据应用AI 解读

Many scientific problems are relational: the quantity of interest is a connection between two objects, while information about similarity is available for the objects themselves. We develop a covariance framework for unordered relationships that transfers object-level geometry to the relations they form while preserving endpoint identity and invariance to ordering. Building on symmetric pairwise-kernel representations, we develop theory for the loop-free domains used in…

利用逻辑回归实现快速高维均值检验AI 解读

We propose computationally efficient tests for equality of mean vectors of two or more high-dimensional populations. Central to our approach is an equivalence between equality of means and a zero population logistic regression parameter. We establish this equivalence for independently distributed observations without imposing common distributional assumptions across populations. Our procedure uses logistic Lasso to screen informative variables and an unpenalized logistic…

用于神经影像数据的贝叶斯张量回归AI 解读

Multidimensional array data, or tensors, arise naturally in neuroimaging and other high-dimensional applications. We propose a parsimonious Bayesian tensor regression model for studies in which a brain image is the response and predictors are vector-valued covariates. The method extends Bayesian envelope dimension reduction to tensor responses, identifying material subspaces that contain regression information while removing variation that is immaterial to the predictors.…

稀疏组可调 LassoAI 解读

The sparse-group pliable Lasso (SGPL) extends the pliable Lasso and group pliable Lasso by combining sparse-group regularization with a predictor-level coupling penalty, enabling simultaneous group-level selection, within-group sparsity, and hierarchical structure between main effects and interactions. We propose a blockwise coordinate descent algorithm for fitting the SGPL that exploits the convexity and structure of the objective function, establish convexity and…

具有高斯过程分裂的树狄利克雷过程混合：贝叶斯非参数框架与后验收缩率AI 解读

We propose a Bayesian nonparametric mixture of regression trees with a Dirichlet process prior over tree-parameter pairs, enabling data-driven selection of ensemble size and unifying CART, BART, random forests, and boosting. A novel splitting rule driven by the posterior predictive of a Gaussian process within each terminal node generates flexible, smooth decision boundaries; remarkably, the GP density cancels exactly in the Metropolis--Hastings ratio for GROW/PRUNE moves,…

用于地统计建模的最近邻非高斯过程AI 解读

We develop a general class of nearest-neighbor non-Gaussian processes (NNnGP) for modeling geostatistical data. By introducing non-linear conditional mean functions into the Vecchia approximation, NNnGP extends the popular nearest-neighbor Gaussian process (NNGP) to effectively capture complex, non-Gaussian spatial characteristics. To ensure coherent spatial predictions from a single realization, we propose a regularized homogeneity condition across the univariate…

Matérn 回归的非渐近分析：目标与核长度尺度的作用AI 解读

Theoretical guarantees for kernel regression are typically formulated in terms of smoothness, but practical accuracy depends critically on how the design resolution compares with the target and kernel lengthscales. We develop a finite-sample theory for Matérn regression on periodic domains with quasi-uniform designs, covering noiseless interpolation and noisy kernel ridge regression. Our minimax result shows that accurate recovery requires a design dense enough to resolve…
