This paper considers inference for a function of a parameter vector in a partially identified model with many moment inequalities. This framework allows the number of moment conditions to grow with the sample size, possibly at exponential…
We consider adaptive designs for a trial involving N individuals that we follow along T time steps. We allow for the variables of one individual to depend on its past and on the past of other individuals. Our goal is to learn a mean…
We study asymptotic statistical inference in the space of bounded functions endowed with the supremums norm over an arbitrary metric space $S$ using a novel concept: Simultaneous COnfidence Region of Excursion (SCoRE) Sets. They…
Instrumental variables are commonly used to estimate effects of a treatment afflicted by unmeasured confounding, and in practice instruments are often continuous (e.g., measures of distance, or treatment preference). However, available…
This paper focuses on the problem of testing the null hypothesis that the regression functions of several populations are equal under a general nonparametric homoscedastic regression model. It is well known that linear kernel regression…
For a high-dimensional linear model with a finite number of covariates measured with error, we study statistical inference on the parameters associated with the error-prone covariates, and propose a new corrected decorrelated score test and…
Complex scientific models where the likelihood cannot be evaluated present a challenge for statistical inference. Over the past two decades, a wide range of algorithms have been proposed for learning parameters in computationally feasible…
The performance of many machine learning techniques depends on the choice of an appropriate similarity or distance measure on the input space. Similarity learning (or metric learning) aims at building such a measure from training data so…
$\textbf{Objective:}$ High-throughput phenotyping will accelerate the use of electronic health records (EHRs) for translational research. A critical roadblock is the extensive medical supervision required for phenotyping algorithm (PA)…
The testing time for a system-on-chip(SOC) largely depends on the design of test wrappers and the test access mechanism(TAM).Wrapper/TAM co-optimization is therefore necessary to minimize SOC testing time . In this paper, we propose an…
A power constrained sensor network that consists of multiple sensor nodes and a fusion center (FC) is considered, where the goal is to estimate a random parameter of interest. In contrast to the distributed framework, the sensor nodes may…
Competing risks data arise frequently in clinical trials. When the proportional subdistribution hazard assumption is violated or two cumulative incidence function (CIF) curves cross, rather than comparing the overall treatment effects,…
We discuss a graph-based approach for testing spatial point patterns. This approach falls under the category of data-random graphs, which have been introduced and used for statistical pattern recognition in recent years. Our goal is to test…
Optimal operation of distribution grid resources relies on accurate estimation of its state and topology. Practical estimation of such quantities is complicated by the limited presence of real-time meters. This paper discusses a theoretical…
Effective decision making from randomised controlled clinical trials relies on robust interpretation of the numerical results. However, the language we use to describe clinical trials can cause confusion both in trial design and in…
In the context of a binary classification problem, the optimal linear combination of continuous predictors can be estimated by maximizing an empirical estimate of the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). For…
We engineer a new probabilistic Monte-Carlo algorithm for isomorphism testing. Most notably, as opposed to all other solvers, it implicitly exploits the presence of symmetries without explicitly computing them. We provide extensive…
We consider the problem of simultaneous detection and estimation under a sequential framework. In particular we are interested in sequential tests that distinguish between the null and the alternative hypothesis and every time the decision…
Global and national efforts to deliver high-quality nuclear data to users have a broad impact across applications such as national security, reactor operation, basic science, medical fields, and more. Cross section evaluation is a large…
Analyzing the structure of sampled features from an input data distribution is challenging when constrained by limited measurements in both the number of inputs and features. Traditional approaches often rely on the eigenvalue spectrum of…
