We propose a class of weighted least squares estimators for the tail index of a distribution function with a regularly varying upper tail. Our approach is based on the method developed by \cite{Holan2010} for the Parzen tail index.…

We present in this paper a family of generalized simultaneous perturbation-based gradient search (GSPGS) estimators that use noisy function measurements. The number of function measurements required by each estimator is guided by the…
In recent studies on sparse modeling, $l_q$ ($0<q<1$) regularized least squares regression ($l_q$LS) has received considerable attention due to its superiorities on sparsity-inducing and bias-reduction over the convex counterparts. In this…
Traditional recursive least square (RLS) adaptive filtering is widely used to estimate the impulse responses (IR) of an unknown system. Nevertheless, the RLS estimator shows poor performance when tracking rapidly time-varying systems. In…
We develop a new approach for the estimation of a multivariate function based on the economic axioms of quasiconvexity (and monotonicity). On the computational side, we prove the existence of the quasiconvex constrained least squares…

The recursive least-squares (RLS) algorithm has well-documented merits for reducing complexity and storage requirements, when it comes to online estimation of stationary signals as well as for tracking slowly-varying nonstationary…
In simultaneous transmit and receive (STAR) wireless communications, digital self-interference (SI) cancellation is required before estimating the remote transmission (RT) channel. Considering the inherent connection between SI channel…
In this paper, we analyze the two time-scale stochastic approximation (TTSSA) algorithm introduced in Borkar (1997) using a martingale approach. This approach leads to simple sufficient conditions for the iterations to be bounded almost…
We study the performance of the Least Squares Estimator (LSE) in a general nonparametric regression model, when the errors are independent of the covariates but may only have a $p$-th moment ($p\geq 1$). In such a heavy-tailed regression…
We introduce a two-parameter version of the two-step scale-splitting iteration method, called TTSCSP, for solving a broad class of complex symmetric system of linear equations. We present some conditions for the convergence of the method.…
We consider the least-squares regression problem and provide a detailed asymptotic analysis of the performance of averaged constant-step-size stochastic gradient descent (a.k.a. least-mean-squares). In the strongly-convex case, we provide…
In the measurement-constrained problems, despite the availability of large datasets, we may be only affordable to observe the labels on a small portion of the large dataset. This poses a critical question that which data points are most…
The adjoint method, among other sensitivity analysis methods, can fail in chaotic dynamical systems. The result from these methods can be too large, often by orders of magnitude, when the result is the derivative of a long time averaged…
