一般平滑模型中选择平滑参数的结构化割线方法AI 解读

General smooth models replace parameters of a regular likelihood with additive models. The models can include parametric terms, Gaussian random effects, and smooth functions of covariates. The latter are parameterized via a reduced-rank spline basis and regularized via weighted quadratic penalties placed on the basis coefficients. Estimates for these weights (i.e., smoothing parameters) can be obtained by optimizing the Laplace-approximate Bayesian marginal likelihood.…

多元时空回归：惩罚模型选择与实证应用AI 解读

This paper develops the statistical foundations of a multivariate general nesting spatio-temporal (MGNST) regression framework for analyzing spatial, temporal, and cross-equation dependence among responses. Four parameter matrices represent spatial lag dependence, spatial error dependence,temporal autoregression, and contemporaneous error covariance. Their off-diagonal elements allow dependence to propagate within and across responses. Matrix restrictions yield eleven…

Lasso选择后Cox模型的模型化自助法推断AI 解读

Inference after variable selection in Cox regression is difficult because simple Wald-type intervals after selection can have poor finite-sample conditional coverage. We study a model-based bootstrap for inference after Cox-Lasso variable selection. The Cox-Lasso is fitted once to the original data to select a set of variables, after which an unpenalized Cox model is fitted using only those variables. Bootstrap samples are generated from a semiparametric plug-in Cox model…

用于非线性现象模型识别的正则化迭代广义最小二乘与超参数选择AI 解读

In some fields currently dominated by empirical approaches, such as state of health (SoH) prediction for lithium-ion batteries, phenomenological models motivated by quasi-physical thinking contain parameters to be estimated from experimental data. Often the structure of such models yields fully or partially confounded parameters, which are difficult or even impossible to estimate reliably. To preserve the desired model formulation and simultaneously improve the numerical…

个体化治疗效应预测校准的非参数评估AI 解读

An important aspect of the performance of algorithms that predict individualized treatment effects (ITE) is moderate calibration, i.e., the average treatment effect among individuals with predicted treatment effect of z being equal to z. The assessment of moderate calibration is challenging on two fronts: counterfactual responses are unobserved, and quantifying the conditional response function for models that generate continuous predicted values requires regularization.…

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…

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…

在线广义稀疏回归：过度参数化如何发挥作用？AI 解读

Regularized sparse regression has been extensively studied in the offline setting, but online formulation remains relatively under-explored. This gap stems from four key challenges: (i) the infeasibility of dynamically updating the regularization parameter in every online round, (ii) managing storage and memory complexity, (iii) enabling real-time computation via closed-form updates rather than solving full optimization problems at each round, and (iv) achieving optimal…

高维约束回归的稀疏凸化AI 解读

We study high-dimensional linear regression under a general symmetric convex constraint. Rather than imposing a specific sparsity-inducing penalty, we start from an arbitrary sign-symmetric and permutation-invariant convex body $K\subseteq \mathbb R^p$ and construct the sparse convexification hierarchy \[ K^{(s)} = \operatorname{conv}\{v\in K:\|v\|_0\le s\}. \] We propose a penalized least-squares estimator that searches over this hierarchy and adapts to the best sparse…

学习宏观经济语言AI 解读

We show how state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) can be trained effectively on limited historical data for macroeconomic forecasting. We estimate a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with stochastic volatility and Student-t shocks on an initial segment of the data to obtain a posterior distribution over structural parameters. We sample from this posterior to generate millions of theory-consistent synthetic panels that, when mixed with macroeconomic…

部分干扰下用于倾向得分估计的混合效应结果自适应 LassoAI 解读

Interference occurs when one individual's treatment or exposure affects another individual's outcome. In particular, we assume partial interference, where individuals are divided into groups such that there is no interference between individuals in different groups. In observational studies, inverse probability weighting (IPW) based on propensity scores is often used for causal effect estimation. However, under partial interference, the group-level propensity score must be…

块状缺失的纵向特征分布数据：高维辅助学习AI 解读

In multi-institutional studies, different parties hold distinct feature blocks for partially overlapping sets of individuals. Responses may also be missing for some records. In such settings, we propose Assisted Learning with Block-Missing Data (ALB) for sparse high-dimensional linear estimation and coordinatewise inference without pooling records or relying on a coordinating server. ALB minimizes a regularized available-case quadratic loss using cyclic block updates. Each…

面板数据模型中折点的估计与检验AI 解读

Many economic and financial relationships may change gradually rather than abruptly. We study panel data models in which the coefficient vector is continuous and piecewise linear in calendar time, with a finite number of unknown kink dates at which its slope changes. We propose a penalised least squares estimator that applies adaptive weighted group penalties to the second differences of the coefficient path, and develop asymptotic theory showing that it recovers both the…

层级与分组时间序列预测协调的预测组合框架AI 解读

Forecast combining and forecast reconciliation for hierarchical and grouped time series have largely developed as separate research areas. This paper connects the two by developing a forecast combination framework for forecast reconciliation. For each bottom-level series, we construct a maximal linearly independent set of structured candidate forecasts from aggregation constraints, and show that combining these candidates and aggregating the resulting bottom-level forecasts…

Gamma–Gamma与对数正态–Rician湍流信道的高斯化参数估计AI 解读

Accurate parameter estimation for atmospheric turbulence channels is challenging because the probability density functions of the Gamma-Gamma (GG) and Lognormal-Rician (LR) models involve special functions and numerical integrations. This paper proposes two Gaussianization parameter estimators for GG and LR turbulence channels, i.e., the quantile-transformation (QT) estimator and the Box-Cox estimator. The QT estimator employs bidirectional cross-transformation together with…

一种通过监督学习训练的患者相似度计算方法AI 解读

Personalized predictive modelling has been growing rapidly with the increasing availability of Electronic Health Records. This approach aims to improve a model's predictive performance by fitting a unique model to each individual. We train the model on a subset of the training data consisting of individuals similar to the individual being predicted, identified through some similarity metric. Earlier studies show that using a personalized model trained on a customized subset…

压缩岭回归的自助法误差估计与压缩规模选择AI 解读

Randomized sketching reduces the computational cost of large ridge-regression problems, but the coefficient error depends on the realized sketch. We extend the paired-row bootstrap from randomized least squares to ridge regression, enabling coefficient-error estimation using only compressed data. Under a fixed coefficient dimension and increasing data and sketch sizes, we derive asymptotic linear representations and Gaussian limits for the sketched estimator and the…

多区域临床试验中区域处理效应的有效估计AI 解读

A multi-regional clinical trial (MRCT) is a single clinical trial conducted in multiple regions simultaneously under a common protocol, which may be used to support parallel submissions to multiple regulatory authorities. For a regional regulatory authority, treatment effects defined specifically for its own region are more relevant to consider than overall treatment effects based on all regions included in an MRCT. A regional treatment effect can be estimated consistently…

正则化M估计量的中心极限定理AI 解读

We prove a quantitative central limit theorem for linear functionals of regularized empirical-risk minimizers in the proportional-dimensional regime \(p=O(n)\). The data columns are independent, not necessarily identically distributed, and satisfy a uniform columnwise Poincaré inequality. Under uniform curvature and smoothness assumptions, and for a quadratic regularizer, we show that every nondegenerate statistic \(\sqrt n\,u^\top\hatθ\), centered by its expectation and…

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,…

经典回归方法在最优切换问题中的有效性AI 解读

Simple regression methods provide robust, near-optimal solutions for optimal switching problems, including high-dimensional ones (up to 50). While the theory requires solving intractable PDE systems, the Longstaff-Schwartz algorithm with classical regression methods achieves excellent switching decisions without extensive hyperparameter tuning. Testing linear models (OLS, Ridge, LASSO), tree-based methods (random forests, gradient boosting), $k$-nearest neighbors, and…

非光滑回归中原始—对偶算法路径的泛化误差估计AI 解读

This paper studies trajectory-wise estimation of generalization error for primal--dual algorithms in non-smooth regression. Motivating examples include \(\ell_1\)-penalized least absolute deviations regression and square-root Lasso regression, where the data-fitting loss is non-differentiable and existing risk estimators for gradient-type optimization paths do not apply directly. We develop a general recursive framework that includes the Chambolle--Pock algorithm and related…

高维正则化Huber回归的精确坐标下降算法AI 解读

This study develops a coordinate descent algorithm for high-dimensional Huber regression with an elastic-net penalty. Unlike existing gradient descent algorithms and coordinate descent methods based on second-order optimization, the proposed algorithm performs each coordinate update exactly, without approximation or gradient and Hessian computations. Consequently, it remains stable and converges rapidly even in the presence of highly correlated covariates or heavy-tailed…

广义贝叶斯政策学习AI 解读

This study proposes a General Bayes framework for policy learning. We consider decision problems in which a decision-maker chooses an action from a given set to maximize expected welfare. Typical examples include treatment choice and portfolio optimization. In such problems, the statistical target is a decision rule, and predicting each potential outcome is not necessarily of primary interest. We formulate this policy-learning problem through loss-based Bayesian updating.…
