交易量、波动率与收益联合动态的结构矩阵自回归模型AI 解读

This paper proposes a Structural Matrix Autoregressive (SMAR) model for the joint analysis of asset returns, realized volatility, and trading volume in a large-dimensional setting. This framework simultaneously captures dynamic spillovers across financial variables and cross-sectional dependence across assets while preserving a parsimonious parameterization relative to conventional vector autoregressive models. The model is estimated on daily data for the constituents of the…

约束极大似然与最小二乘问题中的拉格朗日乘子AI 解读

This study investigates a statistical property of Lagrange multipliers in constrained Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) and Least Squares (LS) problems from the perspective of numerical optimization. Building on large-sample theory, we show that the associated Lagrange multipliers converge to zero as the sample size increases, provided the distribution is correctly specified in MLE or the residuals are normally distributed in LS. Although this asymptotic behavior has long…

基于最大均值差异的高维广义线性模型稳健稀疏估计AI 解读

High-dimensional datasets are frequently subject to contamination by outliers and heavy-tailed noise, which can severely bias standard regularized estimators like the Lasso. While Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD) has recently been introduced as a ``universal'' framework for robust regression, its application to high-dimensional Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) remains largely unexplored, particularly regarding variable selection. In this paper, we propose a penalized MMD…

基于体素级BOLD信号的区域功能连接混合模型估计AI 解读

Resting-state brain functional connectivity quantifies the synchrony between activity patterns of different brain regions. In functional magnetic resonance imaging, each region comprises a set of spatially contiguous voxels at which blood-oxygen-level-dependent signals are acquired. The ubiquitous Correlation of Averages (CA) estimator, and other similar metrics, are computed from spatially aggregated signals within each region, and remain the quantifications of…

成分数据中的坍缩模式学习：贝叶斯异质相对偏移方法AI 解读

Relative-shift regression provides a principled framework for modeling compositional covariates by quantifying how the response changes when mass is reallocated from one component to another. Yet many emerging compositional data problems extend beyond this classical setting, involving high-dimensional predictors and regression effects that vary across latent subpopulations. This complexity poses a dual challenge unmet by existing methods: recovering latent cluster structure…

中介模型与动态处理模型中的识别检验AI 解读

We propose a test for the identification of causal effects in mediation and dynamic treatment models that is based on two sets of observed variables, namely covariates to be controlled for and suspected instruments, building on the test by Huber and Kueck (2022) for single treatment models. We consider models with a sequential assignment of a treatment and a mediator to assess the direct treatment effect (net of the mediator), the indirect treatment effect (via the…

处理效应完全中介与因果机制可识别性的检验AI 解读

In causal analysis, understanding the causal mechanisms through which an intervention or treatment affects an outcome is often of central interest. We propose a test to evaluate (i) whether the causal effect of a treatment that is randomly assigned conditional on covariates is fully mediated by, or operates exclusively through, observed intermediate outcomes (referred to as mediators or surrogate outcomes), and (ii) whether the various causal mechanisms operating through…

基于变分梯度下降的贝叶斯反问题模型误设检测AI 解读

Bayesian inference is optimal when the statistical model is well-specified, while outside this setting Bayesian inference can catastrophically fail; accordingly a wealth of post-Bayesian methodologies have been proposed. Predictively oriented (PrO) approaches lift the statistical model $P_θ$ to an (infinite) mixture model $\int P_θ\; \mathrm{d}Q(θ)$ and fit this predictive distribution via minimising an entropy-regularised objective functional. In the well-specified setting…

MediEncoder：高维因果中介分析的非线性表示学习AI 解读

Causal mediation analysis decomposes a treatment effect into indirect pathways through mediators and direct pathways not operating through them. Modern biomedical studies often involve high-dimensional covariates and mediators that are noisy proxies for lower-dimensional latent biological processes. Existing methods typically rely on sparsity, linear factor models, or ignore the connection among variables in the learned representations, which can be restrictive when…

基于秩混合模型的转录组数据贝叶斯全基因组聚类与变量选择AI 解读

With the increasing availability of ranking data, there has been a growing demand for appropriate unsupervised rank-based inferential frameworks capable of handling high-dimensional datasets and providing uncertainty quantification for all estimates. Rank-based methods have also seen a growing popularity in -omics pipelines, as ranking continuous measurements provides a robust means of handling non-normally distributed data. The Bayesian Mallows model (BMM) has emerged as a…

含交互固定效应的非线性面板模型的可计算估计AI 解读

Interactive fixed effects are routinely controlled for in linear panel models. While an analogous fixed effects (FE) estimator for nonlinear models has been available in the literature (Chen, Fernandez-Val and Weidner, 2021), it sees much more limited use in applied research because its implementation involves solving a high-dimensional non-convex problem. In this paper, we complement the theoretical analysis of Chen, Fernandez-Val and Weidner (2021) by providing a new…

优化控制黑箱模型偏差以实现有效半参数估计AI 解读

Modern semiparametric estimation often relies on flexible black-box machine learning methods to estimate nuisance functions, raising a fundamental question: how do nuisance estimation errors propagate into inference for low-dimensional target parameters? The dominant paradigm, exemplified by double machine learning (DML), yields error bounds in which nuisance estimation errors enter multiplicatively. While widely adopted, it remains unclear whether this multiplicative-rate…

个性化治疗方案的贝叶斯不确定性量化与多阶段变量选择AI 解读

A dynamic treatment regime is a sequence of medical decisions that adapts to the evolving clinical status of a patient over time. To facilitate personalized care, it is crucial to assess the probability of each available treatment option being optimal for a specific patient, while also identifying the key prognostic factors that determine the optimal sequence of treatments. This task has become increasingly challenging due to the growing number of individual prognostic…

离线逆强化学习与动态离散选择模型的经验风险最小化方法AI 解读

We study the problem of estimating Dynamic Discrete Choice (DDC) models, also known as offline Maximum Entropy-Regularized Inverse Reinforcement Learning (offline MaxEnt-IRL) in machine learning. The objective is to recover reward or $Q^*$ functions that govern agent behavior from offline behavior data. In this paper, we propose a globally convergent gradient-based method for solving these problems without the restrictive assumption of linearly parameterized rewards. The…

可扩展 ARMA 模型的拟极大似然估计AI 解读

The recently proposed scalable ARMA model preserves the parsimony of traditional VARMA models while achieving greater computational tractability. However, existing studies are limited to regularized least squares estimation (LSE) for high-dimensional settings, which is not only statistically less efficient but also requires the sub-Gaussian assumption for its theoretical guarantees. Moreover, it still lacks inference tool for real applications. To fill this gap, we develop a…

含协变量的高斯图回归模型的凸估计AI 解读

Gaussian graphical models (GGMs) are widely used to recover the conditional independence structure among random variables. Recent work has sought to incorporate auxiliary covariates to improve estimation, particularly in applications such as co-expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies, where both gene expression levels and their conditional dependence structure may be influenced by genetic variants. Existing approaches to covariate-adjusted GGMs either restrict…

因果树估计个体化处理效应的精度极限AI 解读

Recursive decision trees are widely used to estimate heterogeneous causal treatment effects in experimental and observational studies. These methods are typically implemented using CART-type recursive partitioning, with splitting criteria designed to identify variation in treatment effects across covariate-defined subgroups. We study causal tree estimators based on adaptive recursive partitioning and establish lower bounds on their estimation accuracy. The class we analyze…

袋装多项式回归与神经网络AI 解读

Climate and environmental applications increasingly rely on high-dimensional prediction from remote sensing and other scientific data. Neural networks (NN) can deliver strong accuracy in these settings, but they are often hard to audit and hard to align with domain knowledge. As an alternative, we propose bagged polynomial regression with random projections (BPR), an econometrics-native ensemble that averages many regularized low-degree polynomial models fit on randomly…

重尾设计下回归的两阶段稳健稀疏梯度方法AI 解读

We study high-dimensional sparse regression under simultaneous heavy-tailed covariates and noise. Heavy-tailed data affect sparse optimization in two different ways: extreme covariates can destabilize the gradient field during global localization, while heavy-tailed noise limits the final statistical accuracy during local refinement. Motivated by this two-phase structure, we propose two-stage RIGHT, a robust sparse first-order method based on coordinate-wise median-of-means…

ReSGA：学习风险价值与预期损失的大型尾部风险模型AI 解读

Learning Value-at-Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) is important for managing financial risks effectively. Existing approaches with limited parameters are vulnerable to model misspecification in the era of big data. To address this limitation, we propose a large tail risk model, the retrieval-enhanced self-grouping autoencoder (ReSGA), which is designed with millions of parameters to exploit the rich cross-sectional dependence and long-term temporal dynamics of assets…

RowNet：用于表格回归的记忆 TransformerAI 解读

Real estate valuation is a structured regression problem in which prices are governed by heterogeneous feature types, sparse regional effects, nonlinear interactions, and the practical logic of comparable properties. Standard multilayer perceptrons treat each row as an isolated vector and must learn locality, scale sensitivity, and categorical matching from supervision alone. Gradient-boosted decision trees provide strong tabular baselines, but their feature-centric…

超越点估计：聚类数据下预测性能指标的可靠评估AI 解读

Prediction performance metrics such as accuracy and the F1 score are typically reported as single numbers, with no measure of uncertainty. The omission has been tolerable in exploratory settings, where model evaluation is used for informal comparison rather than formal decision-making. But as machine learning is deployed in real-world applications, evaluation results are increasingly used to support binary decisions -- whether a model meets a required standard or not --…

成对比较模型的正则化：伪博弈与幽灵选手方法AI 解读

Paired comparison models are useful for estimating latent abilities or preferences from binary outcomes, but maximum likelihood estimation can be unstable or fail when the comparison graph is disconnected or nearly separated. Ridge regularization addresses these difficulties by shrinking ability parameters toward a common center, but it can obscure the simple likelihood interpretation that makes Bradley-Terry and Thurstone-Mosteller models attractive to practitioners. This…

利用大规模在线核学习估计双向因果效应AI 解读

In this study, a scalable online kernel learning framework is proposed for estimating bidirectional causal effects in systems characterized by mutual dependence and heteroskedasticity. Traditional causal inference often focuses on unidirectional effects, overlooking the common bidirectional relationships in real-world phenomena. Building on heteroskedasticity-based identification, the proposed method integrates a quasi-maximum likelihood estimator for simultaneous equation…
