We develop a new method for generating prediction sets that combines the flexibility of conformal methods with an estimate of the conditional distribution $P_{Y \mid X}$. Existing methods, such as conformalized quantile regression and…

We discuss in detail the asymptotic distribution of sample expectiles. First, we show uniform consistency under the assumption of a finite mean. In case of a finite second moment, we show that for expectiles other then the mean, only the…

Let $f$ be a probability density and $C$ be an interval on which $f$ is bounded away from zero. By establishing the limiting distribution of the uniform error of the kernel estimates $f_n$ of $f$, Bickel and Rosenblatt (1973) provide…

This paper provides conditions under which subsampling and the bootstrap can be used to construct estimators of the quantiles of the distribution of a root that behave well uniformly over a large class of distributions $\mathbf{P}$. These…

Sample autocorrelograms typically come with significance bands (non-rejection regions) for the null hypothesis of no temporal correlation. These bands have two shortcomings. First, they build on pointwise intervals and suffer from joint…

This paper develops a theory of distribution- and time-uniform asymptotics, culminating in the first large-sample anytime-valid inference procedures that are shown to be uniformly valid in a rich class of distributions. Historically,…
