High-dimensional inference refers to problems of statistical estimation in which the ambient dimension of the data may be comparable to or possibly even larger than the sample size. We study an instance of high-dimensional inference in…
High-dimensional feature vectors are likely to contain sets of measurements that are approximate replicates of one another. In complex applications, or automated data collection, these feature sets are not known a priori, and need to be…
