Thanks to its favorable properties, the multivariate normal distribution is still largely employed for modeling phenomena in various scientific fields. However, when the number of components $p$ is of the same asymptotic order as the sample…

We consider an analysis of variance type problem, where the sample observations are random elements in an infinite dimensional space. This scenario covers the case, where the observations are random functions. For such a problem, we propose…

Tests based on sample mean vectors and sample spatial signs have been studied in the recent literature for high dimensional data with the dimension larger than the sample size. For suitable sequences of alternatives, we show that the powers…

High-dimensional data, where the dimension of the feature space is much larger than sample size, arise in a number of statistical applications. In this context, we construct the generalized multivariate sign transformation, defined as a…

Asymptotic methods for hypothesis testing in high-dimensional data usually require the dimension of the observations to increase to infinity, often with an additional relationship between the dimension (say, $p$) and the sample size (say,…

The sign and the signed-rank tests for univariate data are perhaps the most popular nonparametric competitors of the t test for paired sample problems. These tests have been extended in various ways for multivariate data in finite…

Asymptotic methods for hypothesis testing in high-dimensional data usually require the dimension of the observations to increase to infinity, often with an additional condition on its rate of increase compared to the sample size. On the…

This paper proposes a novel test method for high-dimensional mean testing regard for the temporal dependent data. Comparison to existing methods, we establish the asymptotic normality of the test statistic without relying on restrictive…

In this paper, we consider procedures for testing hypotheses on the dimension of the linear span generated by a growing number of $p\times p$ covariance matrices from independent $q$ populations. Under a proper limiting scheme where all the…

We prove in a direct fashion that a multidimensional probability measure is determinate if the higher dimensional analogue of Carleman's condition is satisfied. In that case, the polynomials, as well as certain proper subspaces of the…

We develop some graph-based tests for spherical symmetry of a multivariate distribution using a method based on data augmentation. These tests are constructed using a new notion of signs and ranks that are computed along a path obtained by…

We consider inference on the first principal direction of a $p$-variate elliptical distribution. We do so in challenging double asymptotic scenarios for which this direction eventually fails to be identifiable. In order to achieve…

For random samples of size n obtained from p-variate normal distributions, we consider the classical likelihood ratio tests (LRT) for their means and covariance matrices in the high-dimensional setting. These test statistics have been…

We revisit the null distribution of the high-dimensional spatial-sign test of Wang et al. (2015) under mild structural assumptions on the scatter matrix. We show that the standardized test statistic converges to a non-Gaussian limit,…

Testing for white noise is a classical yet important problem in statistics, especially for diagnostic checks in time series modeling and linear regression. For high-dimensional time series in the sense that the dimension $p$ is large in…
