In this article, we consider the problem of estimating the index parameter $\alpha_0$ in the single index model $E[Y |X] = f_0(\alpha_0^T X)$ with $f_0$ the unknown ridge function defined on $\mathbb{R}$, $X$ a d-dimensional covariate and…

This paper considers nonparametric regression from strongly mixing observations. The proposed approach is based on deep neural networks with minimum error entropy (MEE) principle. We study two estimators: the non-penalized deep neural…
Optimal statistical decisions should transcend the language used to describe them. Yet, how do we guarantee that the choice of coordinates - the parameterisation of an optimisation problem - does not subtly dictate the solution? This paper…
Estimation problems with constrained parameter spaces arise in various settings. In many of these problems, the observations available to the statistician can be modelled as arising from the noisy realization of the image of a random linear…
