如何构建潜在马尔可夫模型：时间与空间的作用AI 解读

Statistical models that involve latent Markovian state processes have become immensely popular tools for analysing time series and other sequential data. However, the plethora of model formulations, the inconsistent use of terminology, and the various inferential approaches and software packages can be overwhelming to practitioners, especially when they are new to this area. With this review-like paper, we thus aim to provide guidance for both statisticians and practitioners…

多变量空间模型中的相关块金效应：Argo 海洋数据应用AI 解读

Accurate analysis of global oceanographic data, such as temperature and salinity profiles from the Argo program, requires geostatistical models capable of capturing complex spatial dependencies. This study introduces Gaussian and non-Gaussian hierarchical multivariate Matérn-SPDE models with correlated nugget effects to account for small-scale variability and measurement error correlations. Using simulations and Argo data, we demonstrate that incorporating correlated nugget…

函数型因果效应的核估计方法AI 解读

We propose causal effect estimators based on empirical Fréchet means and operator-valued kernels, tailored to functional data spaces. These methods address the challenges of high-dimensionality, sequential ordering, and model complexity while preserving robustness to treatment misspecification. Using structural assumptions, we obtain compact representations of potential outcomes, enabling scalable estimation of causal effects over time and across covariates. We provide both…

深度学习增强的多变量 GARCHAI 解读

This paper introduces a novel multivariate volatility modeling framework, named Long Short-Term Memory enhanced BEKK (LSTM-BEKK), that integrates deep learning into multivariate GARCH processes. By combining the flexibility of recurrent neural networks with the econometric structure of BEKK models, our approach is designed to better capture nonlinear, dynamic, and high-dimensional dependence structures in financial return data. The proposed model addresses key limitations of…

用于因果效应估计的正交约束深度工具变量模型AI 解读

OC-DeepIV is a neural network model designed for estimating causal effects. It characterizes heterogeneity by adding interaction features and reduces redundancy through orthogonal constraints. The model includes two feature extractors, one for the instrumental variable Z and the other for the covariate X*. The training process is divided into two stages: the first stage uses the mean squared error (MSE) loss function, and the second stage incorporates orthogonal…

稳定性选择的稳定性及其应用AI 解读

Stability selection is a widely adopted resampling-based framework for high-dimensional variable selection. This paper seeks to broaden the use of an established stability estimator to evaluate the overall stability of the stability selection results, moving beyond single-variable analysis. We suggest that the stability estimator offers two advantages: it can serve as a reference to reflect the robustness of the results obtained, and it can help identify a Pareto optimal…

函数线性Cox模型中的变量选择AI 解读

Modern biomedical studies frequently collect complex, high-dimensional physiological signals using wearables and sensors along with time-to-event outcomes, making efficient variable selection methods crucial for interpretation and improving the accuracy of survival models. We propose a novel variable selection method for a functional linear Cox model with multiple functional and scalar covariates measured at baseline. We utilize a spline-based semiparametric estimation…

函数对函数微分回归AI 解读

Function-on-function regression has been a topic of substantial interest due to its broad applicability, where the relation between functional predictor and response is concerned. In this article, we propose a new framework for modeling the regression mapping that extends beyond integral type, motivated by the prevalence of physical phenomena governed by differential relations, which is referred to as function-on-function differential regression. However, a key challenge…

稀疏太阳风时间序列结构函数估计的数据驱动去偏AI 解读

Structure functions, which represent the moments of the increments of a stochastic process, are essential complementary statistics to power spectra for analysing the self-similar behaviour of a time series. However, many real-world environmental datasets, such as those collected by spacecraft monitoring the solar wind, contain gaps, which inevitably corrupt the statistics. The nature of this corruption for structure functions remains poorly understood - indeed, often…

主成分回归的高维渐近理论AI 解读

We study principal components regression (PCR) in an asymptotic high-dimensional regression setting, where the number of data points is proportional to the dimension. We derive exact limiting formulas for the estimation and prediction risks, which depend in a complicated manner on the eigenvalues of the population covariance, the alignment between the population PCs and the true signal, and the number of selected PCs. A key challenge in the high-dimensional setting stems…

股市心灵感应：用图神经网络预测 MINT 与 G7 市场联系AI 解读

Emerging economies, particularly the MINT countries (Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Türkiye), are gaining influence in global stock markets, although they remain susceptible to the economic conditions of developed countries like the G7 (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States). This interconnectedness and sensitivity of financial markets make understanding these relationships crucial for investors and policymakers to predict stock…

遍历网络随机微分方程AI 解读

We propose a novel framework for Network Stochastic Differential Equations (N-SDE), where each node in a network is governed by an SDE influenced by interactions with its neighbors. The evolution of each node is driven by the interplay of three key components: the node's intrinsic dynamics (\emph{momentum effect}), feedback from neighboring nodes (\emph{network effect}), and a \emph{stochastic volatility} term modeled by Brownian motion. Our primary objective is to estimate…

高维张量值时间序列的高效可解释自回归模型AI 解读

In autoregressive modeling for tensor-valued time series, Tucker decomposition, when applied to the coefficient tensor, provides a clear interpretation of supervised factor modeling but loses its efficiency rapidly with increasing tensor order. Conversely, canonical polyadic (CP) decomposition maintains efficiency but lacks a precise statistical interpretation. To attain both interpretability and powerful dimension reduction, this paper proposes a novel approach under the…

不可观测个体异质性极端分位数的统计推断AI 解读

We develop a methodology for conducting inference on extreme quantiles of unobserved individual heterogeneity (e.g., heterogeneous coefficients, treatment effects) in panel data and meta-analysis settings. Inference is challenging in such settings: only noisy estimates of heterogeneity are available, and central limit approximations perform poorly in the tails. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition under which noisy estimates are informative about extreme quantiles,…

通过检验因果机制独立性证伪无混杂假设AI 解读

A major challenge in estimating treatment effects in observational studies is the reliance on untestable conditions such as the assumption of no unmeasured confounding. In this work, we propose an algorithm that can falsify the assumption of no unmeasured confounding in a setting with observational data from multiple heterogeneous sources, which we refer to as environments. Our proposed falsification strategy leverages a key observation that unmeasured confounding can cause…

高维正则化加性矩阵自回归模型AI 解读

High-dimensional time series has diverse applications in econometrics and finance. Recent models for capturing temporal dependence have employed a bilinear representation for matrix time series, or the Tucker-decomposition based representation in case of tensor time series. A bilinear or Tucker-decomposition based temporal effect is difficult to interpret on many occasions, along with its computational complexity due to the non-convex nature of the underlying optimization…

揭示观测研究中的偏差机制AI 解读

Observational studies are a key resource for causal inference but are often affected by systematic biases. Prior work has focused mainly on detecting these biases, via sensitivity analyses and comparisons with randomized controlled trials, or mitigating them through debiasing techniques. However, there remains a lack of methodology for uncovering the underlying mechanisms driving these biases, e.g., whether due to hidden confounding or selection of participants. In this…

时变安慰剂效应确证性临床试验中的半参数加权样条回归AI 解读

In confirmatory Phase 3 clinical trials with recruitment over the years, the underlying placebo effect may follow an unknown temporal trend. Taking a clinical trial on Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) as an example, fluctuations or variabilities are common in HS-related endpoints, mainly due to the natural disease characteristics, variations of evaluation from different physicians, and standard of care evolvement. The adjustment of time-varying placebo effects receives some…

带协变量的多臂老虎机核 ε-贪心策略AI 解读

We consider the $ε$-greedy strategy for the multi-arm bandit with covariates (MABC) problem, where the mean reward functions are assumed to lie in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). We propose to estimate the unknown mean reward functions using an online weighted kernel ridge regression estimator, and show the resultant estimator to be consistent under appropriate decay rates of the exploration probability sequence, $\{ε_t\}_t$, and regularization parameter, $\{λ_t\}_t$…

投影寻踪密度比估计AI 解读

Density ratio estimation (DRE) is a paramount task in machine learning, for its broad applications across multiple domains, such as covariate shift adaptation, causal inference, independence tests and beyond. Parametric methods for estimating the density ratio possibly lead to biased results if models are misspecified, while conventional non-parametric methods suffer from the curse of dimensionality when the dimension of data is large. To address these challenges, in this…

Ecess-over-Threshold method is a crucial technique in extreme value analysis, which approximately models larger observations over a threshold using a Generalized Pareto Distribution. This paper presents a comprehensive framework for analyzing tail risk in high-dimensional data by introducing the Factorized Tail Volatility Model (FTVM) and integrating it with central quantile models through the EoT method. This integrated framework is termed the FTVM-EoT method. In this…

利用工具增强的大语言模型智能体开展多模态因果发现AI 解读

Causal discovery is an imperative foundation for decision-making across domains, such as smart health, AI for drug discovery and AIOps. Traditional statistical causal discovery methods, while well-established, predominantly rely on observational data and often overlook the semantic cues inherent in cause-and-effect relationships. The advent of Large Language Models (LLMs) has ushered in an affordable way of leveraging the semantic cues for knowledge-driven causal discovery,…

LETS-C：利用文本嵌入进行时间序列分类AI 解读

Recent advancements in language modeling have shown promising results when applied to time series data. In particular, fine-tuning pre-trained large language models (LLMs) for time series classification tasks has achieved state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance on standard benchmarks. However, these LLM-based models have a significant drawback due to the large model size, with the number of trainable parameters in the millions. In this paper, we propose an alternative approach…

We study the effect of using high-resolution elevation data on the selection of the most fuel-efficient(greenest) path for different trucks in various urban environments.We adapt a variant of the Comprehensive Modal Emission Model(CMEM) to show that the optimal speed and the greenest path are slope dependent (dynamic).When there are no elevation changes in a road network, the most fuel-efficient path is the shortest path with a constant (static) optimal speed…
