This study introduces a novel estimation method for the entries and structure of a matrix $A$ in the linear factor model $\mathbf{X} = A\textbf{Z} + \textbf{E}$. This is applied to an observable vector $\mathbf{X} \in \mathbb{R}^d$ with…

For each $n$, let $A_n=(\sigma_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ deterministic matrix and let $X_n=(X_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. centered entries of unit variance. We study the asymptotic behavior of the empirical spectral…

The aim of this paper is to give a precise asymptotic description of some eigenvalue statistics stemming from random matrix theory. More precisely, we consider random determinants of the GUE, Laguerre, Uniform Gram and Jacobi beta ensembles…

We consider unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) for classification problems in the presence of missing data in the unlabelled target domain. More precisely, motivated by practical applications, we analyze situations where distribution…

This study aims at contributing to lower bounds for empirical compatibility constants or empirical restricted eigenvalues. This is of importance in compressed sensing and theory for $\ell_1$-regularized estimators. Let $X$ be an $n \times…

Consider the task of matrix estimation in which a dataset $X \in \mathbb{R}^{n\times m}$ is observed with sparsity $p$, and we would like to estimate $\mathbb{E}[X]$, where $\mathbb{E}[X_{ui}] = f(\alpha_u, \beta_i)$ for some Holder smooth…

We propose autoregressive Bayesian semi-parametric models for waiting times between recurrent events. The aim is two-fold: inference on the effect of possibly time-varying covariates on the gap times and clustering of individuals based on…

We consider a diffusive matrix process $(X_t)_{t\ge 0}$ defined as $X_t:=A+H_t$ where $A$ is a given deterministic Hermitian matrix and $(H_t)_{t\ge 0}$ is a Hermitian Brownian motion. The matrix $A$ is the "external source" that one would…

High-dimensional compositional data arise naturally in many applications such as metagenomic data analysis. The observed data lie in a high-dimensional simplex, and conventional statistical methods often fail to produce sensible results due…

To unbiasedly estimate a causal effect on an outcome unconfoundedness is often assumed. If there is sufficient knowledge on the underlying causal structure then existing confounder selection criteria can be used to select subsets of the…

This work considers stationary vector count time series models defined via deterministic functions of a latent stationary vector Gaussian series. The construction is very general and ensures a pre-specified marginal distribution for the…

We propose a two-sample test for covariance matrices in the high-dimensional regime, where the dimension diverges proportionally to the sample size. Our hybrid test combines a Frobenius-norm-based statistic as considered in Li and Chen…

This note describes the concentration phenomenon for a high dimensional sub-gaussian vector \( X \). In the Gaussian case, for any linear operator \( Q \), it holds \( P\bigl( \| Q X \|^{2} - tr (B) > 2 \sqrt{x\, tr(B^{2})} + 2 \| B \| x…
