Least-squares refitting is widely used in high dimensional regression to reduce the prediction bias of l1-penalized estimators (e.g., Lasso and Square-Root Lasso). We present theoretical and numerical results that provide new insights into…

In this paper, we study the issue of estimating a structured signal $x_0 \in \mathbb{R}^n$ from non-linear and noisy Gaussian observations. Supposing that $x_0$ is contained in a certain convex subset $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we prove that…

We present upper and lower bounds for the prediction error of the Lasso. For the case of random Gaussian design, we show that under mild conditions the prediction error of the Lasso is up to smaller order terms dominated by the prediction…

We consider partially observed multiscale diffusion models that are specified up to an unknown vector parameter. We establish for a very general class of test functions that the filter of the original model converges to a filter of reduced…

This paper develops an approach to inference in a linear regression model when the number of potential explanatory variables is larger than the sample size. The approach treats each regression coefficient in turn as the interest parameter,…

A challenge in developing machine learning regression models is that it is difficult to know whether maximal performance has been reached on a particular dataset, or whether further model improvement is possible. In biology this problem is…
