It is often of interest to assess whether a function-valued statistical parameter, such as a density function or a mean regression function, is equal to any function in a class of candidate null parameters. This can be framed as a…

Estimating the dissipativity of nonlinear systems from empirical data is useful for the analysis and control of nonlinear systems, especially when an accurate model is unavailable. Based on a Koopman operator model of the nonlinear system…
Suppose that $Y$ is a scalar and $X$ is a second-order stochastic process, where $Y$ and $X$ are conditionally independent given the random variables $\xi_1,...,\xi_p$ which belong to the closed span $L_X^2$ of $X$. This paper investigates…

Previous analysis of regularized functional linear regression in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) typically requires the target function to be contained in this kernel space. This paper studies the convergence performance of…

Quantifying the degree of spatial dependence for linguistic variables is a key task for analyzing dialectal variation. However, existing approaches have important drawbacks. First, they are based on parametric models of dependence, which…
In this work, we study the Kuelbs-Steadman-2 space (KS-2 space), a Hilbert space constructed via the Henstock-Kurzweil integral, which allows handling non-absolutely integrable functions. We present the construction of the KS-2 space over…
Generalized linear models are often misspecified due to overdispersion, heteroscedasticity and ignored nuisance variables. Existing quasi-likelihood methods for testing in misspecified models often do not provide satisfactory type-I error…
