Consider the regression problem where the response $Y\in\mathbb{R}$ and the covariate $X\in\mathbb{R}^d$ for $d\geq 1$ are \textit{unmatched}. Under this scenario, we do not have access to pairs of observations from the distribution of $(X,…

Wasserman et al. (2020, PNAS, vol. 117, pp. 16880-16890) constructed estimator agnostic and finite-sample valid confidence sets and hypothesis tests, using split-data likelihood ratio-based statistics. We demonstrate that the same approach…

We consider probabilistic systems with hidden state and unobservable transitions, an extension of Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) that in particular admits unobservable {\epsilon}-transitions (also called null transitions), allowing state…

Latent space models are powerful statistical tools for modeling and understanding network data. While the importance of accounting for uncertainty in network analysis has been well recognized, the current literature predominantly focuses on…

We study scattered piecewise interpretable Hilbert spaces from a model theoretic point of view. We establish strong connections between the Hilbert space structure theorems of [Chevalier Hrushovski 2021] and the model theoretic notions of…

Based on the duality between open-string theory on noncompact Calabi-Yau threefolds and Chern-Simons theory on three manifolds, M Marino and C Vafa conjectured a formula of one-partition Hodge integrals in term of invariants of the unknot…

Network models are an increasingly popular way to abstract complex psychological phenomena. While the study of the structure of network models has led to many important insights, little attention is paid to how well they predict…

Given a statistical model, we propose a novel estimation method that yields randomised estimators for the unknown distribution of an observed random variable. We establish non-asymptotic bounds for the performance of these estimators and…

This is a non-standard paper, containing some problems, mainly in model theory, which I have, in various degrees, been interested in. Sometimes with a discussion on what I have to say; sometimes, of what makes them interesting to me,…

We describe a method that infers whether statistical dependences between two observed variables X and Y are due to a "direct" causal link or only due to a connecting causal path that contains an unobserved variable of low complexity, e.g.,…

We formulate uncertainty relations for arbitrary finite number of incompatible observables. Based on the sum of variances of the observables, both Heisenberg-type and Schr\"{o}dinger-type uncertainty relations are provided. These new lower…
