The traditional kernel density estimator of an unknown density is by construction completely nonparametric, in the sense that it has no preferences and will work reasonably well for all shapes. The present paper develops a class of…

The theory of Compressed Sensing (CS) asserts that an unknown signal $x\in\mathbb{R}^p$ can be accurately recovered from an underdetermined set of $n$ linear measurements with $n\ll p$, provided that $x$ is sufficiently sparse. However, in…

Super-resolution techniques overcome the diffraction-limit and get very high resolutions. A category of these techniques, e.g., STED achieves this by creating an illumination spot smaller than the Airy Disk. As a result, points are…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be two independent identically distributed random variables with density $p(x)$ and $Z=\alpha X+\beta Y$ for some constants $\alpha>0$ and $\beta>0$. We consider the problem of estimating $p(x)$ by means of the samples from…

Mendelian randomization (MR) is a widely used tool for causal inference in the presence of unmeasured confounders, which uses single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as instrumental variables to estimate causal effects. However, SNPs often…

In the blind deconvolution problem, we observe the convolution of an unknown filter and unknown signal and attempt to reconstruct the filter and signal. The problem seems impossible in general, since there are seemingly many more unknowns…

Tissue heterogeneity is a major confounding factor in studying individual populations that cannot be resolved directly by global profiling. Experimental solutions to mitigate tissue heterogeneity are expensive, time consuming, inapplicable…

Super-resolution microscopes (such as STED) illuminate samples with a tiny spot, and achieve very high resolution. But structures smaller than the spot cannot be resolved in this way. Therefore, we propose a technique to solve this problem.…

The most ubiquitous form of computational aberration correction for microscopy is deconvolution. However, deconvolution relies on the assumption that the point spread function is the same across the entire field-of-view. This assumption is…
