First passage distributions of semi-Markov processes are of interest in fields such as reliability, survival analysis, and many others. The problem of finding or computing first passage distributions is, in general, quite challenging. We…

We study the fundamental problems of identity testing (goodness of fit), and closeness testing (two sample test) of distributions over $k$ elements, under differential privacy. While the problems have a long history in statistics, finite…
We consider the problem of conditional independence testing: given a response Y and covariates (X,Z), we test the null hypothesis that Y is independent of X given Z. The conditional randomization test (CRT) was recently proposed as a way to…
Classical Density Functional Theory (DFT) is a statistical-mechanical framework to analyze fluids, which accounts for nanoscale fluid inhomogeneities and non-local intermolecular interactions. DFT can be applied to a wide range of…
In this study, we propose Shortcut Fine-Tuning (SFT), a new approach for addressing the challenge of fast sampling of pretrained Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPMs). SFT advocates for the fine-tuning of DDPM samplers through…

In general, randomness tests included in a test suite are not independent of each other. This renders it difficult to fix a rational criterion through the whole test suite with an explicit significance level. In this paper, we focus on the…
Efficient sampling from un-normalized target distributions is pivotal in scientific computing and machine learning. While neural samplers have demonstrated potential with a special emphasis on sampling efficiency, existing neural implicit…
The simultaneous analysis of many statistical tests is ubiquitous in applications. Perhaps the most popular error rate used for avoiding type one error inflation is the false discovery rate (FDR). However, most theoretical and software…
This paper is devoted to a discussion of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) representation of a chaotic finite-duration sequence. This representation has the advantage that is itself a finite-duration sequence corresponding to samples…
Given an $n$-length input signal $\mbf{x}$, it is well known that its Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), $\mbf{X}$, can be computed in $O(n \log n)$ complexity using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). If the spectrum $\mbf{X}$ is exactly…
The objective of goodness-of-fit testing is to assess whether a dataset of observations is likely to have been drawn from a candidate probability distribution. This paper presents a rank-based family of goodness-of-fit tests that is…
Currently, statistical tests for random number generators (RNGs) are widely used in practice, and some of them are even included in information security standards. But despite the popularity of RNGs, consistent tests are known only for…
In this work, we introduce a definition of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) on Euclidean lattices in $\R^n$, that generalizes the $n$-th fold DFT of the integer lattice $\Z^n$ to arbitrary lattices. This definition is not applicable for…
Null Hypothesis Significance Testing (NHST) has long been of central importance to psychology as a science, guiding theory development and underlying the application of evidence-based intervention and decision-making. Recent years, however,…
