The emergence of massive data in recent years brings challenges to automatic statistical inference. This is particularly true if the data are too numerous to be read into memory as a whole. Accordingly, new sampling techniques are needed to…
Most regularized tensor regression research focuses on tensors predictors with scalars responses or vectors predictors to tensors responses. We consider the sparse low rank tensor on tensor regression where predictors $\mathcal{X}$ and…
Expected Shortfall (ES), also known as superquantile or Conditional Value-at-Risk, has been recognized as an important measure in risk analysis and stochastic optimization, and is also finding applications beyond these areas. In finance, it…
