We provide adaptive inference methods, based on $\ell_1$ regularization, for regular (semi-parametric) and non-regular (nonparametric) linear functionals of the conditional expectation function. Examples of regular functionals include…

In this paper, we consider the situation in which the observations follow an isotonic generalized partly linear model. Under this model, the mean of the responses is modelled, through a link function, linearly on some covariates and…

We present a new and general method of weighted least square univariate regression where the dependent variable is expanded as a series of suitably chosen functions of the independent variables. Each term of the series is obtained by an…

This paper investigates the high-dimensional linear regression with highly correlated covariates. In this setup, the traditional sparsity assumption on the regression coefficients often fails to hold, and consequently many model selection…

Estimation of linear and quadratic functionals over different classes of univalent functions is one of the classical problems in geometric function theory. In this paper we solve the problem over some classes of so-called non-linear…

Univariate or multivariate ordinal responses are often assumed to arise from a latent continuous parametric distribution, with covariate effects which enter linearly. We introduce a Bayesian nonparametric modeling approach for univariate…

A class of parametric functions formed by alternating compositions of multivariate polynomials and rectification style monomial maps is studied (the layer-wise exponents are treated as fixed hyperparameters and are not optimized). For this…
