面向连续与二元混合响应的稳健联合建模AI 解读

In many supervised learning applications, the response consists of both continuous and binary outcomes. Studies have shown that jointly modeling such mixed-type responses can substantially improve predictive performance compared to separate analyses. But outliers pose a new challenge to the existing likelihood-based modeling approaches. In this paper, we propose a new robust joint modeling framework for data with both continuous and binary responses. It is based on the…

基于分区的函数型岭回归：高维数据方法AI 解读

This paper proposes a partition-based functional ridge regression framework to address multicollinearity, overfitting, and interpretability in high-dimensional functional linear models. The coefficient function vector \( \boldsymbolβ(s) \) is decomposed into two components, \( \boldsymbolβ_1(s) \) and \( \boldsymbolβ_2(s) \), representing dominant and weaker functional effects. This partition enables differential ridge penalization across functional blocks, so that important…

合成控制法的自由度与信息准则AI 解读

We provide an analytical characterization of the model flexibility of the synthetic control method (SCM) in the familiar form of degrees of freedom. We obtain estimable information criteria, which may be used to circumvent cross-validation when selecting either the tuning parameter in penalized variants of SCM or the weighting matrix in the SCM with covariates. We assess the impact of car license rationing in Tianjin; while a natural match is available, both it and other…

线性与非线性序列依赖检验的收缩正则化AI 解读

This paper introduces a regularized test of the null hypothesis of the absence of linear and nonlinear serial dependence for high-dimensional non-Gaussian time series. Our approach extends the portmanteau test introduced in Jasiak and Neyazi (2023) to the high-dimensional setting.

高维稳健估计的自适应与分层子抽样AI 解读

We study robust high-dimensional sparse regression under finite-variance heavy-tailed noise, epsilon-contamination, and alpha-mixing dependence via two subsampling estimators: Adaptive Importance Sampling (AIS) and Stratified Sub-sampling (SS). Under sub-Gaussian design whose scopeis precisely delimited and finite-variance noise, a subsample of size m achieves the minimax-optimal rate. We close the theory-algorithm gap: Theorem 4.6 applies to AIS at termination conditional…

函数型回归中变量选择的变分推断AI 解读

In practical regression applications, multiple covariates are often measured, but not all may be associated with the response variable. Identifying and including only the relevant covariates in the model is crucial for improving prediction accuracy. In this work, we develop a variational inference approach for estimation and variable selection in scalar-on-function regression, involving only functional covariates, and in partially functional regression models that also…

隐私线性回归中适应噪声尾部的方法AI 解读

While the traditional goal of statistics is to infer population parameters, modern practice increasingly demands protection of individual privacy. One way to address this need is to adapt classical statistical procedures into privacy-preserving algorithms. In this paper, we develop differentially private tail-robust methods for linear regression. The trade-off among bias, privacy, and robustness is controlled by a tunable robustification parameter in the Huber loss. We…

基于自适应收缩的高维线性回归贝叶斯迁移学习AI 解读

We introduce BLAST, Bayesian Linear regression with Adaptive Shrinkage for Transfer, a Bayesian multi-source transfer learning framework for high-dimensional linear regression. The proposed analytical framework leverages global-local shrinkage priors together with Bayesian source selection to balance information sharing and regularization. We show how Bayesian source selection allows for the extraction of the most useful data sources, while discounting biasing information…

离散观测下高维Lévy驱动OU过程的稀疏估计AI 解读

We study high-dimensional drift estimation for Lévy-driven Ornstein--Uhlenbeck processes based on discrete observations. Assuming sparsity of the drift matrix, we analyze Lasso and Slope estimators constructed from approximate likelihoods and derive sharp nonasymptotic oracle inequalities. Our bounds disentangle the contributions of discretization error and stochastic fluctuations, and establish minimax optimal convergence rates under suitable choices of tuning parameters in…

稀疏协整关系的检测AI 解读

We propose a two-step procedure to detect cointegration in high-dimensional settings, focusing on sparse relationships. First, we use the adaptive LASSO to identify the small subset of integrated covariates driving the equilibrium relationship with a target series, ensuring model-selection consistency. Second, we adopt an information-theoretic model choice criterion to distinguish between stationarity and nonstationarity in the resulting residuals, avoiding dependence on…

基于拟后验的贝叶斯变量选择AI 解读

The Bayesian approach provides powerful methods for variable selection. The ability to incorporate sparsity through prior beliefs and account for parameter uncertainty allows Bayesian variable selection to consistently identify which of the variables are active and exhibit strong finite-sample performance. However, Bayesian methods require the correct specification of full likelihoods for the data, and there is increasing awareness of the problems that model misspecification…

用于因果推断的可控生成式沙盒AI 解读

Method validation and study design in causal inference rely on synthetic data with known counterfactuals. Existing simulators trade off distributional realism, the ability to capture mixed-type and multimodal tabular data, against causal controllability, including explicit control over overlap, unmeasured confounding, and treatment effect heterogeneity. We introduce CausalMix, a variational generative framework that closes this gap by coupling a mixture of Gaussian latent…

目标偏移下正则化最小二乘的重要性加权校正AI 解读

Importance weighting is a standard tool for correcting distribution shift, but its statistical behavior under target shift -- where the label distribution changes between training and testing while the conditional distribution of inputs given the label remains stable -- remains under-explored. We analyze importance-weighted kernel ridge regression under target shift and show that, because the weights depend only on the output variable, reweighting corrects the train-test…

VICatMix：面向离散生物医学数据的变分贝叶斯聚类与变量选择AI 解读

Effective clustering of biomedical data is crucial in precision medicine, enabling accurate stratifiction of patients or samples. However, the growth in availability of high-dimensional categorical data, including `omics data, necessitates computationally efficient clustering algorithms. We present VICatMix, a variational Bayesian finite mixture model designed for the clustering of categorical data. The use of variational inference (VI) in its training allows the model to…

超越错误发现率：面向分组变量选择的逐步分组 SLOPE 方法AI 解读

High-dimensional feature selection is routinely required to balance statistical power with strict control of multiple-error metrics such as the k-Family-Wise Error Rate (k-FWER) and the False Discovery Proportion (FDP), yet some existing frameworks are confined to the narrower goal of controlling the expected False Discovery Rate (FDR) and can not exploit the group-structure of the covariates, such as Sorted L-One Penalized Estimation (SLOPE). We introduce the Group Stepdown…

平滑样条 ANOVA 模型中导数的估计与假设检验AI 解读

Within the framework of smoothing spline ANOVA, we propose a plug-in kernel ridge regression estimator to estimate the derivatives of the underlying multivariate regression function. We first establish an $L_\infty$ convergence rate of the proposed estimator under general random designs. When the covariates are uniformly distributed, we provide a in-depth analysis that includes a sharp upper bound and the minimax lower bound of the $L_2$ convergence rate. Additionally,…

重症监护中的锚回归域泛化与域适应AI 解读

The performance of predictive models in clinical settings often degrades when deployed in new hospitals due to distribution shifts. This paper presents a large-scale study of causality-inspired domain generalization on heterogeneous multi-center intensive care unit (ICU) data. We apply anchor regression and introduce anchor boosting, a novel, tree-based nonlinear extension, to a large dataset comprising 400,000 patients from nine distinct ICU databases. We find that anchor…

Jacobi 先验：一种替代性的贝叶斯监督学习方法AI 解读

The Jacobi prior offers an alternative Bayesian framework, designed to achieve superior computational efficiency without compromising predictive performance. Compared to widely used methods such as Lasso, Ridge, Elastic Net, uniLasso, the MCMC-based Horseshoe prior, and non-Bayesian machine learning methods including Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forests, and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), the Jacobi prior achieves competitive or better accuracy with…

合成先验：基于想象观测的广义线性模型信息先验AI 解读

Bayesian inference in generalized linear models requires a prior on the coefficient vector $β$. Practitioners naturally reason about response probabilities at specific covariate values, not about abstract log-odds parameters. We develop synthetic priors: informative Bayesian priors for GLMs grounded in Good's device of imaginary observations -- the principle that every conjugate prior is equivalent to a likelihood on pseudo-data from the same exponential family. The…

可行的数据融合：结构性非重叠下的约束联合估计AI 解读

Causal inference in modern largescale systems faces growing challenges, including highdimensional covariates, multi-valued treatments, massive observational (OBS) data, and limited randomized controlled trial (RCT) samples due to cost constraints. We formalize treatment-induced structural non-overlap and show that, under this regime, commonly used weighted fusion methods provably fail to satisfy randomized identifying restrictions.To address this issue,we propose a…

面向 f-散度正则化上下文赌博机的离线策略学习精确分析AI 解读

Many offline reinforcement learning algorithms are underpinned by $f$-divergence regularization, but their sample complexity *defined with respect to regularized objectives* still lacks tight analyses, especially in terms of concrete data coverage conditions. In this paper, we study the exact concentrability requirements to achieve the $\tildeΘ(ε^{-1})$ sample complexity for offline $f$-divergence-regularized contextual bandits. For reverse Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence,…

纵向数据的自适应惩罚双稳健回归AI 解读

Longitudinal data often involve heterogeneity, sparse signals, and contamination from response outliers or high-leverage observations especially in biomedical science. Existing methods usually address only part of this problem, either emphasizing penalized mixed effects modeling without robustness or robust mixed effects estimation without high-dimensional variable selection. We propose a doubly adaptive robust regression (DAR-R) framework for longitudinal linear mixed…

推断并加宽，还是不加宽？AI 解读

In recent years, there has been substantial interest in the task of selective inference: inference on a parameter that is selected from the data. Many of the existing proposals fall into what we refer to as the \emph{infer-and-widen} framework: they produce symmetric confidence intervals whose midpoints do not account for selection and therefore are biased; thus, the intervals must be wide enough to account for this bias. In this paper, we investigate infer-and-widen…

生成式贝叶斯计算：高斯过程代理模型的可扩展替代方案AI 解读

Gaussian process (GP) surrogates are the default tool for emulating expensive computer experiments, but cubic cost, stationarity assumptions, and Gaussian predictive distributions limit their reach. We propose Generative Bayesian Computation (GBC) via Implicit Quantile Networks (IQNs) as a surrogate framework that targets all three limitations. GBC learns the full conditional quantile function from input--output pairs; at test time, a single forward pass per quantile level…
