Improving Tensor Regression by Optimal Model Averaging

Tensors have broad applications in neuroimaging, data mining, digital marketing, etc. CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP) tensor decomposition can effectively reduce the number of parameters to gain dimensionality-reduction and thus plays a key role in tensor regression. However, in CP decomposition, there is uncertainty about which rank to use. In this article, we develop a model averaging method to handle this uncertainty by weighting the estimators from candidate tensor regression models with different ranks. When all candidate models are misspecified, we prove that the model averaging estimator is asymptotically optimal. When correct models are included in the set of candidate models, we prove the consistency of parameters and the convergence of the model averaging weight. Simulations and empirical studies illustrate that the proposed method has superiority over the competition methods and has promising applications. Supplementary materials for this article are available online, including a standardized description of the materials available for reproducing the work.

Bootstrap inference in factor-augmented regressions with weak factors

Peiyun Jiang · Takashi Yamagata首次提交 2025-10-01 · 修订 2026-10-14 · v2arXiv预印本

In this paper, we develop bootstrap methods for factor-augmented regressions with potentially weak common components, allowing signal eigenvalues to diverge at heterogeneous rates $N^{α_k}$, where $0<α_k\leq1$, $k=1,\ldots,r$. The regression estimator targets a rotation of the latent parameter vector that may be data dependent, while factor estimation can induce asymptotic bias. The proposed procedure directly constructs the rotation-specific target in the bootstrap world,…

Testing Conditional Distribution Equality Using Generative Models

Conditional distribution equality testing is a core problem with applications in causal inference, model diagnostics, and transfer learning. Existing methods often lose power when the conditioning variable is high-dimensional. We propose a new test that leverages generative models to compare conditional distributions using both observed data and synthetic samples. A sample-splitting and studentization scheme is introduced to control estimation error. Under the null, the test…

Propensity score with factor loadings: evaluating the effect of the Paris Agreement on the returns of European stocks

Angelo Forino · Andrea Mercatanti · Giacomo Morelli首次提交 2025-07-11 · 修订 2026-10-14 · v2arXiv预印本

Factor models for longitudinal data, where policy adoption is unconfounded with respect to a low-dimensional set of latent factor loadings, have become increasingly popular for causal inference. Most existing approaches, however, rely on a causal finite-sample approach or computationally intensive methods, limiting their applicability and external validity. In this paper, we propose a novel method for panel causal inference within a super-population framework, based on…

Estimating Causal Treatment Effects in Placebo-Controlled Randomized Clinical Trials When High Placebo Response is Anticipated

In placebo-controlled randomized clinical trials (RCTs), the placebo response significantly modifies treatment effects and diminishes the intention-to-treat (ITT) treatment effect, $Δ_{ITT}$. This study presents a novel two-stage framework for estimating the standardized causal treatment effect, $Δ_{STD}$, among the ITT population, under the assumption that their placebo responses are similar to the levels of self-administering medication at home. The first stage employs a…

Two Gaussians, Too Many: A bootstrap-based approach to assess identifiability in non-Gaussian structural vector autoregressions

Paritosh Shankarrao Junare首次提交 2026-07-19 · 修订 2026-10-14 · v2arXiv预印本

Normality pre-tests on reduced-form innovations cannot detect whether two or more underlying structural shocks are Gaussian, and hence cannot detect a failure of identification in non-Gaussian SVARs. We propose a bootstrap-based approach that reveals such a failure. Under the null of valid identification and certain regularity conditions, the conditional bootstrap distribution of the maximum likelihood estimator of the impact matrix is asymptotically normal, so the…

Associating High-Dimensional Longitudinal Datasets through an Efficient Cross-Covariance Decomposition

Jianbin Tan · Pixu Shi首次提交 2026-01-19 · 修订 2026-10-14 · v2arXiv预印本

Understanding associations between paired high-dimensional longitudinal datasets is a fundamental yet challenging problem arising across scientific domains, including longitudinal multi-omic studies. The difficulty stems from the complex, time-varying cross-covariance structure coupled with high dimensionality, which complicates both model formulation and statistical estimation for association discovery. To address these challenges, we propose a new framework called…
