We study the effect of norm based regularization on the size of coresets for regression problems. Specifically, given a matrix $ \mathbf{A} \in {\mathbb{R}}^{n \times d}$ with $n\gg d$ and a vector $\mathbf{b} \in \mathbb{R} ^ n $ and…

This paper studies schemes to de-bias the Lasso in a linear model $y=X\beta+\epsilon$ where the goal is to construct confidence intervals for $a_0^T\beta$ in a direction $a_0$, where $X$ has iid $N(0,\Sigma)$ rows. We show that previously…
Leave-one-out (LOO) prediction provides a principled, data-dependent measure of generalization, yet guarantees in fully transductive settings remain poorly understood beyond specialized models. We introduce Median of Level-Set Aggregation…

In optimization, it is known that when the objective functions are strictly convex and well-conditioned, gradient-based approaches can be extremely effective, e.g., achieving the exponential rate of convergence. On the other hand, the…

Inference for high-dimensional logistic regression models using penalized methods has been a challenging research problem. As an illustration, a major difficulty is the significant bias of the Lasso estimator, which limits its direct…
Beta regression is commonly employed when the outcome variable is a proportion. Since its conception, the approach has been widely used in applications spanning various scientific fields. A series of extensions have been proposed over time,…
