We formulate a new information-theoretic principle--the shifted composition rule--which bounds the divergence (e.g., Kullback-Leibler or R\'enyi) between the laws of two stochastic processes via the introduction of auxiliary shifts. In this…
We study optimal convergence rates in the periodic homogenization of linear elliptic equations of the form $-A(x/\varepsilon):D^2 u^{\varepsilon} = f$ subject to a homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition. We show that the optimal rate for…

We present a new algorithm for estimating the star discrepancy of arbitrary point sets. Similar to the algorithm for discrepancy approximation of Winker and Fang [SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 34 (1997), 2028--2042] it is based on the optimization…
Measurement error arises through a variety of mechanisms. A rich literature exists on the bias introduced by covariate measurement error and on methods of analysis to address this bias. By comparison, less attention has been given to errors…

Optimal state estimation for linear discrete-time systems is considered. Motivated by the literature on differential privacy, the measurements are assumed to be corrupted by Laplace noise. The optimal least mean square error estimate of the…
A common way to quantify the ,,distance'' between measures is via their discrepancy, also known as maximum mean discrepancy (MMD). Discrepancies are related to Sinkhorn divergences $S_\varepsilon$ with appropriate cost functions as…
Statistical applications often involve the calculation of intractable multidimensional integrals. The Laplace formula is widely used to approximate such integrals. However, in high-dimensional or small sample size problems, the shape of the…
The objective of the present paper is to introduce the concept of a spatially inhomogeneous linear inverse problem where the degree of ill-posedness of operator $Q$ depends not only on the scale but also on location. In this case, the rates…
We consider learning methods based on the regularization of a convex empirical risk by a squared Hilbertian norm, a setting that includes linear predictors and non-linear predictors through positive-definite kernels. In order to go beyond…
This paper examines the asymptotic convergence properties of Lipschitz interpolation methods within the context of bounded stochastic noise. In the first part of the paper, we establish probabilistic consistency guarantees of the classical…
Statistical inverse learning aims at recovering an unknown function $f$ from randomly scattered and possibly noisy point evaluations of another function $g$, connected to $f$ via an ill-posed mathematical model. In this paper we blend…
In this paper, we investigate an inverse random source problem concerned with recovering the strength of a random, uncorrelated acoustic source from correlation measurements of emitted time-harmonic acoustic waves. Such problems arise in…
We present novel retrospective change point detection approach based on optimal transport and geometric discrepancy. The method does not require any parametric assumptions about distributions separated by change points. It can be used both…
This article discusses a generalization of the 1-dimensional multi-reference alignment problem. The goal is to recover a hidden signal from many noisy observations, where each noisy observation includes a random translation and random…
The focus of this paper is on trend estimation for a general state-space model $Y_t=\mu_t+\varepsilon_t$, where the $d$th difference of the trend $\{\mu_t\}$ is assumed to be i.i.d., and the error sequence $\{\varepsilon_t\}$ is assumed to…
Variational regularization of ill-posed inverse problems is based on minimizing the sum of a data fidelity term and a regularization term. The balance between them is tuned using a positive regularization parameter, whose automatic choice…
Incompatible observables can be approximated by compatible observables in joint measurement or measured sequentially, with constrained accuracy as implied by Heisenberg's original formulation of the uncertainty principle. Recently, Busch,…
The problem of recovering acoustic sources, more specifically monopoles, from point-wise measurements of the corresponding acoustic pressure at a limited number of frequencies is addressed. To this purpose, a family of sparse optimization…
