过参数化时间序列线性模型中的良性过拟合AI 解读

The success of large-scale models in recent years has increased the importance of statistical models with numerous parameters. Several studies have analyzed over-parameterized linear models with high-dimensional data, which may not be sparse; however, existing results rely on the assumption of sample independence. In this study, we analyze a linear regression model with dependent time-series data in an over-parameterized setting. We consider an estimator using interpolation…

高维线性因子混合分类中高斯普适性的失效AI 解读

The assumption of Gaussian or Gaussian mixture data has been extensively exploited in a long series of precise performance analyses of machine learning (ML) methods, on large datasets having comparably numerous samples and features. To relax this restrictive assumption, subsequent efforts have been devoted to establish "Gaussian equivalent principles" by studying scenarios of Gaussian universality where the asymptotic performance of ML methods on non-Gaussian data remains…

面向具有网络效应的离散选择设计图卷积神经网络AI 解读

We introduce a novel model architecture that incorporates network effects into discrete choice problems, achieving higher predictive performance than standard discrete choice models while offering greater interpretability than general-purpose flexible model classes. Econometric discrete choice models aid in studying individual decision-making, where agents select the option with the highest reward from a discrete set of alternatives. Intuitively, the utility an individual…

用双重差分评估政策效应异质性驱动因素的因果框架AI 解读

Policymakers and researchers often seek to understand how a policy differentially affects a population and the pathways driving this heterogeneity. For example, when studying an excise tax on sweetened beverages, researchers might assess the roles of cross-border shopping, economic competition, and store-level price changes on beverage sales trends. However, traditional policy evaluation tools, like the difference-in-differences (DiD) approach, primarily target average…

扩散模型概率流 ODE 的极小极大最优性AI 解读

Score-based diffusion models have become a foundational paradigm for modern generative modeling, demonstrating exceptional capability in generating samples from complex high-dimensional distributions. Despite the dominant adoption of probability flow ODE-based samplers in practice due to their superior sampling efficiency and precision, rigorous statistical guarantees for these methods have remained elusive in the literature. This work develops the first end-to-end…

L-mixing 时间序列下经典谱估计量的非渐近分析AI 解读

Spectral estimation is a fundamental problem for time series analysis, which is widely applied in economics, speech analysis, seismology, and control systems. The asymptotic convergence theory for classical, non-parametric estimators, is well-understood, but the non-asymptotic theory is still rather limited. Our recent work gave the first non-asymptotic error bounds on the well-known Bartlett and Welch methods, but under restrictive assumptions. In this paper, we derive…

高维稳健回归的广义贝叶斯方法：序列相关误差与预测变量AI 解读

This paper introduces a loss-based generalized Bayesian methodology for high-dimensional robust regression with serially correlated errors and predictors. The proposed framework employs a novel scaled pseudo-Huber (SPH) loss function, which smooths the well-known Huber loss, effectively balancing quadratic ($\ell_2$) and absolute linear ($\ell_1$) loss behaviors. This flexibility enables the framework to accommodate both thin-tailed and heavy-tailed data efficiently. The…

未知干预下高斯结构因果模型的刻画与贪心学习AI 解读

We consider the problem of recovering the causal structure underlying observations from different experimental conditions when the targets of the interventions in each experiment are unknown. We assume a linear structural causal model with additive Gaussian noise and consider interventions that perturb their targets while maintaining the causal relationships in the system. Different models may entail the same distributions, offering competing causal explanations for the…

自洽方程引导的神经网络用于删失时间事件数据AI 解读

In survival analysis, estimating the conditional survival function given predictors is often of interest. There is a growing trend in the development of deep learning methods for analyzing censored time-to-event data, especially when dealing with high-dimensional predictors that are complexly interrelated. Many existing deep learning approaches for estimating the conditional survival functions extend the Cox regression models by replacing the linear function of predictor…

利用信息性目标矩阵的高维协方差矩阵正则化AI 解读

The sample covariance matrix becomes non-invertible in high-dimensional settings, making classical multivariate statistical methods inapplicable. Various regularization techniques address this issue by imposing a structured target matrix to improve stability and invertibility. While diagonal matrices are commonly used as targets due to their simplicity, more informative target matrices can enhance performance. This paper explores the use of such targets and estimates the…

反事实逻辑与因果推断的认识论AI 解读

The 2021 Nobel Prize in Economics recognized an epistemology of causal inference based on the Rubin causal model (Rubin 1974), which merits broader attention in philosophy. This model, in fact, presupposes a logical principle of counterfactuals, Conditional Excluded Middle (CEM), the locus of a pivotal debate between Stalnaker (1968) and Lewis (1973) on the semantics of counterfactuals. Proponents of CEM should recognize that this connection points to a new argument for CEM…

一般时间序列模型的一种稳健推断新方法AI 解读

In this article, we propose a novel logistic quasi-maximum likelihood estimation (LQMLE) for general parametric time series models. Compared to the classical Gaussian QMLE and existing robust estimations, it enjoys many distinctive advantages, such as robustness in respect of distributional misspecification and heavy-tailedness of the innovation, more resiliency to outliers, smoothness and strict concavity of the log logistic quasi-likelihood function, and boundedness of the…

高维蛋白基因组数据的多组学生存中介分析框架AI 解读

Survival analysis plays a crucial role in understanding time-to-event (survival) outcomes such as disease progression. Despite recent advancements in causal mediation frameworks for survival analysis, existing methods are typically based on Cox regression and primarily focus on a single exposure or individual omics layers, often overlooking multi-omics interplay. This limitation hinders the full potential of integrated biological insights. In this paper, we propose SMAHP, a…

通过因果正则化提升多元分析的分布外稳健性AI 解读

We propose a regularisation strategy of classical machine learning algorithms rooted in causality that ensures robustness against distribution shifts. Building upon the anchor regression framework, we demonstrate how incorporating a straightforward regularisation term into the loss function of classical multivariate analysis algorithms, such as (orthonormalized) partial least squares, reduced-rank regression, and multiple linear regression, enables out-of-distribution…

分别可交换经验过程的极大不等式AI 解读

This paper derives new maximal inequalities for empirical processes associated with separately exchangeable random arrays. For fixed index dimension $K\ge 1$, we establish a global maximal inequality bounding the $q$-th moment ($q\in[1,\infty)$) of the supremum of these processes. We also obtain a refined local maximal inequality controlling the first absolute moment of the supremum. Both results are proved for a general pointwise measurable function class. Our approach uses…

弱因子高维分析的迁移主成分方法：通过知识迁移增强估计AI 解读

Early work established convergence of the principal component estimators of the factors and loadings up to a rotation for large dimensional approximate factor models with weak factors in that the factor loading $Λ^{(0)}$ scales sublinearly in the number $N$ of cross-section units, i.e., $Λ^{(0)\top}Λ^{(0)}/N^α$ is positive definite in the limit for some $α\in (0,1)$. However, the established convergence rates for weak factors can be much slower especially for small $α$. This…

This paper examines the evolution of the Finnish electric energy system up to 2035, focusing on the likelihood of different development paths. The primary contribution of this paper is the development of an extensive Bayesian Network, designed to model and analyse the evolution of power generation capacity mix, assess the likelihood of different grid management scenarios, and understand the causal relationships underlying these scenarios. A target optimisation was carried…

环境时间序列的复杂性分析AI 解读

Small, forested catchments are prototypes of terrestrial ecosystems and have been studied in several disciplines of environmental sciences since several decades. Time series of water and matter fluxes and nutrient concentrations from these systems exhibit a bewildering diversity of spatio-temporal patterns, indicating the intricate nature of processes acting on a large range of time scales. Nonlinear dynamics is an obvious framework to investigate catchment time series. We…

生理时间序列的个性化卷积字典学习AI 解读

Human physiological signals tend to exhibit both global and local structures: the former are shared across a population, while the latter reflect inter-individual variability. For instance, kinetic measurements of the gait cycle during locomotion present common characteristics, although idiosyncrasies may be observed due to biomechanical disposition or pathology. To better represent datasets with local-global structure, this work extends Convolutional Dictionary Learning…

含平滑加性扰动的变点回归AI 解读

We assume a nonparametric regression model where the signal is given by the sum of a piecewise constant function and a smooth function. To detect the change-points and estimate the regression functions, we propose PCpluS, a combination of the fused Lasso and kernel smoothing. In contrast to existing approaches, it explicitly uses the additive decomposition of the signal when detecting change-points. This is motivated by several applications and by theoretical results about…

居民用电需求对温度的非线性敏感性：分布回归证据AI 解读

We estimate the temperature sensitivity of residential electricity demand during extreme temperature events using the distribution-to-scalar regression model. Rather than relying on simple averages or individual quantile statistics of raw temperature data, we construct distributional summaries, such as probability density, hazard rate, and quantile functions, to retain a more comprehensive representation of temperature variation. This approach not only utilizes richer…

存在试验期间事件的外部对照试验：双重稳健综合敏感性分析AI 解读

Externally controlled trials are crucial in clinical development when randomized controlled trials are unethical or impractical. These trials consist of a full treatment arm with the experimental treatment and a full external control arm. However, they present significant challenges in learning the treatment effect due to the lack of randomization and a parallel control group. Besides baseline incomparability, outcome mean non-exchangeability, caused by differences in…

估计平均处理效应的双重机器学习方法：比较研究AI 解读

Observational cohort studies are increasingly being used for comparative effectiveness research to assess the safety of therapeutics. Recently, various doubly robust methods have been proposed for average treatment effect estimation by combining the treatment model and the outcome model via different vehicles, such as matching, weighting, and regression. The key advantage of doubly robust estimators is that they require either the treatment model or the outcome model to be…

个体因子载荷不同时如何改进回归因子得分预测AI 解读

Previous research has shown that ignoring individual differences of factor loadings in conventional factor models may reduce the determinacy of factor score predictors. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to propose a heterogeneous regression factor score with larger determinacy than the conventional regression factor score when individuals have different factor loadings. First, a method for the estimation of individual loadings is proposed. The individual loading…
