We prove weak convergence in a separable Hilbert space for estimators of high-dimensional regression coefficients, which yields asymptotic normality and enables direct use of standard asymptotic tools such as the continuous mapping theorem.…

Functional data are typically modeled as sample paths of smooth stochastic processes in order to mitigate the fact that they are often observed discretely and noisily, occasionally irregularly and sparsely. The smoothness assumption is…

A new estimator, named S-LASSO, is proposed for the coefficient function of the Function-on-Function linear regression model. The S-LASSO estimator is shown to be able to increase the interpretability of the model, by better locating…

The stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithm has been widely used in statistical estimation for large-scale data due to its computational and memory efficiency. While most existing works focus on the convergence of the objective function…

We consider a regression framework where the design points are deterministic and the errors possibly non-i.i.d. and heavy-tailed (with a moment of order $p$ in $[1,2]$). Given a class of candidate regression functions, we propose a…

Observations which are realizations from some continuous process are frequent in sciences, engineering, economics, and other fields. We consider linear models, with possible random effects, where the responses are random functions in a…

We consider least squares estimators of the finite regression parameter $\alpha$ in the single index regression model $Y=\psi(\alpha^T X)+\epsilon$, where $X$ is a $d$-dimensional random vector, $\E(Y|X)=\psi(\alpha^T X)$, and where $\psi$…
