We present a new methodology and accompanying theory to test for separability of spatio-temporal functional data. In spatio-temporal statistics, separability is a common simplifying assumption concerning the covariance structure which, if…
In this work we study two Riemannian distances between infinite-dimensional positive definite Hilbert-Schmidt operators, namely affine-invariant Riemannian and Log-Hilbert-Schmidt distances, in the context of covariance operators associated…
Rotated object detection in aerial images is a meaningful yet challenging task as objects are densely arranged and have arbitrary orientations. The eight-parameter (coordinates of box vectors) methods in rotated object detection usually use…
This article deals with the problem of functional classification for L2-valued random covariates when some of the covariates may have missing or unobservable fragments. Here, it is allowed for both the training sample as well as the new…
Inferring and comparing complex, multivariable probability density functions is fundamental to problems in several fields, including probabilistic learning, network theory, and data analysis. Classification and prediction are the two faces…
The past decade has witnessed the rapid development of feature representation learning and distance metric learning, whereas the two steps are often discussed separately. To explore their interaction, this work proposes an end-to-end…
We consider statistical inference for a finite-dimensional parameter in a regular semiparametric model under a distributed setting with blockwise missingness, where entire blocks of variables are unavailable at certain sites and sharing…
The purpose of this investigation is to extend basic equations and inequalities which hold for functions $f$ in a Bernstein space $B_\sigma^2$ to larger spaces by adding a remainder term which involves the distance of $f$ from $B_\sigma^2$.…
We introduce the non-commutative $f$-divergence functional $\Theta(\widetilde{A},\widetilde{B}):=\int_TB_t^{\frac{1}{2}}f\left(B_t^{-\frac{1}{2}} A_tB_t^{-\frac{1}{2}}\right)B_t^{\frac{1}{2}}d\mu(t)$ for an operator convex function $f$,…
There are many distance-based methods for classification and clustering, and for data with a high number of dimensions and a lower number of observations, processing distances is computationally advantageous compared to the raw data matrix.…
Consider semiparametric estimation where a doubly robust estimating function for a low-dimensional parameter is available, depending on two working models. With high-dimensional data, we develop regularized calibrated estimation as a…

Distance multivariance is a multivariate dependence measure, which can detect dependencies between an arbitrary number of random vectors each of which can have a distinct dimension. Here we discuss several new aspects, present a concise…
Data depth functions are a generalization of one-dimensional order statistics and medians to real spaces of dimension greater than one; in particular, a data depth function quantifies the centrality of a point with respect to a data set or…
We consider a bilevel optimatisation method for inverse linear atmospheric dispersion problems where both linear and non-linear model parameters are to be determined. We propose that a smooth weighted Mahalanobis distance function is used…
Sparse functional/longitudinal data have attracted widespread interest due to the prevalence of such data in social and life sciences. A prominent scenario where such data are routinely encountered are accelerated longitudinal studies,…
Comparing the functional behavior of neural network models, whether it is a single network over time or two (or more networks) during or post-training, is an essential step in understanding what they are learning (and what they are not),…
The prevalence of spatially referenced multivariate data has impelled researchers to develop a procedure for the joint modeling of multiple spatial processes. This ordinarily involves modeling marginal and cross-process dependence for any…
Recently, a new distance has been introduced for the graphs of two point-to-set operators, one of which is maximally monotone. When both operators are the subdifferential of a proper lower semicontinuous convex function, this distance…
We apply a suitable modification of the functional delta method to statistical functionals that arise from law-invariant coherent risk measures. To this end we establish differentiability of the statistical functional in a relaxed Hadamard…
