In a regression setting with a response vector and given regressor vectors, a typical question is to what extent the response is related to these regressors, specifically, how well it can be approximated by a linear combination of the…

We investigate statistical properties for a broad class of modern kernel-based regression (KBR) methods. These kernel methods were developed during the last decade and are inspired by convex risk minimization in infinite-dimensional Hilbert…

Regression with sparse inputs is a common theme for large scale models. Optimizing the underlying linear algebra for sparse inputs allows such models to be estimated faster. At the same time, centering the inputs has benefits in improving…

We study a functional linear regression model that deals with functional responses and allows for both functional covariates and high-dimensional vector covariates. The proposed model is flexible and nests several functional regression…

This paper studies a tensor-structured linear regression model with a scalar response variable and tensor-structured predictors, such that the regression parameters form a tensor of order $d$ (i.e., a $d$-fold multiway array) in…

We study the nonparametric least squares estimator (LSE) of a multivariate convex regression function. The LSE, given as the solution to a quadratic program with $O(n^2)$ linear constraints ($n$ being the sample size), is difficult to…

Fr\'echet regression extends the principles of linear regression to accommodate responses valued in generic metric spaces. While this approach has primarily focused on exploring relationships between Euclidean predictors and non-Euclidean…
