打开局部投影的黑箱AI 解读

Local projections (LPs) are widely used in empirical macroeconomics to estimate impulse responses to policy interventions. Yet, in many ways, they are black boxes. It is often unclear what mechanism or historical episodes drive a particular estimate. We introduce a new decomposition of LP estimates into the sum of contributions of historical events, which is the product, for each time stamp, of a weight and the realization of the response variable. In the least squares case,…

高维时间序列中稀疏变化的检测AI 解读

Consider the detection of a sparse change in high-dimensional time-series. We introduce Sparsity Likelihood-based (SL-based) score and the change-points detection procedure in multivariate normal model with general covariance structure. SL-based algorithm is proved to achieve that supremum of error probabilities converges to 0. We run the simulation studies for SL-based algorithm and also illustrate its applications to a S&P500 dataset.

观察数据成本效果分析中的非参数回归：教程AI 解读

Healthcare decision-making often requires selecting among treatment options under budget constraints, particularly when one option is more effective but also more costly. Cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) provides a framework for evaluating whether the health benefits of a treatment justify its additional costs. A key component of CEA is the estimation of treatment effects on both health outcomes and costs, which becomes challenging when using observational data, due to…

从观察到因果：基于图神经网络的概率化因果发现框架AI 解读

Causal discovery from observational data is challenging, especially with large datasets and complex relationships. Traditional methods often struggle with scalability and capturing global structural information. To overcome these limitations, we introduce a novel graph neural network (GNN)-based probabilistic framework that learns a probability distribution over the entire space of causal graphs, unlike methods that output a single deterministic graph. Our framework…

高维Beta回归的Lasso惩罚：计算、分析与推断AI 解读

Beta regression is commonly employed when the outcome variable is a proportion. Since its conception, the approach has been widely used in applications spanning various scientific fields. A series of extensions have been proposed over time, several of which address variable selection and penalized estimation, e.g., with an $\ell_1$-penalty (LASSO). However, a theoretical analysis of this popular approach in the context of Beta regression with high-dimensional predictors is…

结合预测与 VaR 约束的依赖网络投资组合设计AI 解读

This study proposes a novel portfolio optimization framework that integrates statistical social network analysis with time series forecasting and risk management. Using daily stock data from the S&P 500 (2020-2024), we construct dependency networks via Vector Autoregression (VAR) and Forecast Error Variance Decomposition (FEVD), transforming influence relationships into a cost-based network. Specifically, FEVD breaks down the VAR's forecast error variance to quantify how…

回归树的提前停止规则AI 解读

We develop early stopping rules for growing regression tree estimators. The fully data-driven stopping rule is based on monitoring the global residual norm. The best-first search and the breadth-first search algorithms together with linear interpolation give rise to generalized projection or regularization flows. A general theory of early stopping is established. Oracle inequalities for the early-stopped regression tree are derived without any smoothness assumption on the…

含部分无效代理变量的自适应近端因果推断AI 解读

Proximal causal inference (PCI) is a recently proposed framework to identify and estimate the causal effect of an exposure on an outcome in the presence of hidden confounders, using observed proxies. Specifically, PCI relies on two types of proxies: a treatment-inducing confounding proxy, related to the outcome only through its association with unmeasured confounders (given treatment and covariates), and an outcome-inducing confounding proxy, related to the treatment only…

病态线性回归的扩展潜在因子框架AI 解读

In many applications, particularly in the natural sciences, the available high-dimensional set of features may contain variables that are not correlated with the response under consideration. Such irrelevant features can, in certain cases, hinder both the accurate estimation and meaningful interpretation of the effects of the relevant features on the response. At the same time, the relevant features may also be well-approximated within a low-dimensional linear subspace,…

分布式保密数据上的条件平均处理效应估计AI 解读

The estimation of conditional average treatment effects (CATEs) is an important topic in many scientific fields. CATEs can be estimated with high accuracy if data distributed across multiple parties are centralized. However, it is difficult to aggregate such data owing to confidentiality or privacy concerns. To address this issue, we propose data collaboration double machine learning, a method for estimating CATE models using privacy-preserving fusion data constructed from…

物理信息回归：参数线性非线性动力模型的参数估计AI 解读

We present a new efficient hybrid parameter estimation method based on the idea, that if nonlinear dynamic models are stated in terms of a system of equations that is linear in terms of the parameters, then regularized ordinary least squares can be used to estimate these parameters from time series data. We introduce the term "Physics-Informed Regression" (PIR) to describe the proposed data-driven hybrid technique as a way to bridge theory and data by use of ordinary least…

基于高自适应Lasso的超集成学习AI 解读

We introduce the Meta Highly-Adaptive-Lasso Minimum Loss Estimator (M-HAL-MLE), a novel ensemble approach for estimating functional parameters of realistically modeled data distribution from independent and identically distributed observations. Given $J$ initial estimators, candidate ensembles are generated by finite-sectional-variation cadlag functions. Using $V$-fold cross-validation, the M-HAL-MLE selects the optimal cadlag ensemble minimizing the cross-validated…

高维回归中分组方差分解的R2先验AI 解读

We introduce the Group-R2 decomposition prior, a hierarchical shrinkage prior that extends R2-based priors to structured regression settings with known groups of predictors. By decomposing the prior distribution of the coefficient of determination R2 in two stages, first across groups, then within groups, the prior enables interpretable control over model complexity and sparsity. We derive theoretical properties of the prior, including marginal distributions of coefficients,…

协变量偏移下核岭回归的伪标签方法AI 解读

We develop and analyze a principled approach to kernel ridge regression under covariate shift. The goal is to learn a regression function with small mean squared error over a target distribution, based on unlabeled data from there and labeled data that may have a different feature distribution. We propose to split the labeled data into two subsets, and conduct kernel ridge regression on them separately to obtain a collection of candidate models and an imputation model. We…

利用高维辅助表型改进基因组预测：遗传潜因子方法AI 解读

Decreasing costs and new technologies have led to an increase in the amount of data available to plant breeding programs. High-throughput phenotyping (HTP) platforms routinely generate high-dimensional datasets of secondary features that may be used to improve genomic prediction accuracy. However, integration of these data comes with challenges such as multicollinearity, parameter estimation in $p > n$ settings, and the computational complexity of many standard approaches.…

用伯努利自回归部分线性可加模型识别神经连接AI 解读

Characterising the interactions between spiking neurons is central to our understanding of cognitive processes such as memory, perception and decision making. In this work, we consider the problem of inferring connectivity in the brain network from non-stationary high-dimensional spike train data. Under a binned spike count representation of these data, we propose a Bernoulli autoregressive partially linear additive (BAPLA) model to identify the effective connectivity of a…

多项阈值化LASSO用于人类活动序列的可解释降维AI 解读

The widespread collection of data from mobile and wearable devices has created unprecedented opportunities to study human behavior in fine temporal resolution. One common structure for such data is categorical sequences: ordered, multinomial observations across many time points. These sequences present unique statistical challenges due to their high dimensionality and complex temporal dependence, including both short- and long-term correlations. Yet, there has been…

高维广义线性模型中基于采样的后验推断的多项式时间保证AI 解读

The problem of computing posterior functionals in general high-dimensional statistical models with possibly non-log-concave likelihood functions is considered. Based on the proof strategy of Nickl and Wang (2022), but using only local likelihood conditions and without relying on M-estimation theory, nonasymptotic statistical and computational guarantees are provided for a gradient based MCMC algorithm. Given a suitable initialiser, these guarantees scale polynomially in key…

大型因子模型中的移动和多变点检测AI 解读

This paper proposes a moving sum methodology for detecting multiple change points in high-dimensional time series under a factor model, where changes are attributed to those in loadings as well as emergence or disappearance of factors. We establish the asymptotic null distribution of the proposed test for family-wise error control, and show the consistency of the procedure for multiple change point estimation. Simulation studies and an application to a large dataset of…

无需饱和设定的非参数“丰富协变量”方法AI 解读

We consider two nonparametric approaches to ensure that linear instrumental variables estimators satisfy the rich-covariates condition emphasized by Blandhol et al. (2025), even when the instrument is not unconditionally randomly assigned and the model is not saturated. Both approaches start with a nonparametric estimate of the expectation of the instrument conditional on the covariates, and ensure that the rich-covariates condition is satisfied either by using as the…

稳健贝叶斯高维变量选择与推断：马蹄先验族AI 解读

Frequentist robust variable selection has been extensively investigated in high-dimensional regression. Despite success, developing the corresponding statistical inference procedures remains a challenging task. Recently, tackling this challenge from a Bayesian perspective has received much attention. In literature, the two-group spike-and-slab priors that can induce exact sparsity have been demonstrated to yield valid inference in robust sparse linear models. Nevertheless,…

This study develops and empirically validates a Mixture of Experts (MoE) framework for stock price prediction across heterogeneous volatility regimes using real market data. The proposed model combines a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) optimized for high-volatility stocks with a linear regression model tailored to stable equities. A volatility-aware gating mechanism dynamically weights the contributions of each expert based on asset classification. Using a dataset of 30…

分布式协方差矩阵估计的基本极限：条件强数据处理不等式方法AI 解读

Estimating high-dimensional covariance matrices is a key task across many fields. This paper explores the theoretical limits of distributed covariance estimation in a feature-split setting, where communication between agents is constrained. Specifically, we study a scenario in which multiple agents each observe different components of i.i.d. samples drawn from a sub-Gaussian random vector. A central server seeks to estimate the complete covariance matrix using a limited…

因子增强框架下的二元响应预测AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a novel factor-augmented forecasting regression model with a binary response variable. We develop a maximum likelihood estimation method for the regression parameters and establish the asymptotic properties of the resulting estimators. Monte Carlo simulation results show that the proposed estimation method performs very well in finite samples. Finally, we demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed model through an application to U.S. recession…
