Testing equality of mean vectors is a very commonly used criterion when comparing two multivariate random variables. Traditional tests such as Hotelling's T-squared become either unusable or output small power when the number of variables…
After rejecting the null hypothesis in the analysis of variance, the next step is to make the pairwise comparisons to find out differences in means. The purpose of this paper is threefold. The foremost aim is to suggest expression for…
In this paper, we consider the problem of testing equality of the covariance matrices of L complex Gaussian multivariate time series of dimension $M$ . We study the special case where each of the L covariance matrices is modeled as a rank K…
We consider inference on the first principal direction of a $p$-variate elliptical distribution. We do so in challenging double asymptotic scenarios for which this direction eventually fails to be identifiable. In order to achieve…
Testing uniformity on the $p$-dimensional unit sphere is arguably the most fundamental problem in directional statistics. In this paper, we consider this problem in the framework of axial data, that is, under the assumption that the $n$…
This article presents a homogeneity test for testing the equality of several high-dimensional covariance matrices for stationary processes with ignoring the assumption of normality. We give the asymptotic distribution of the proposed test.…
Measuring the (causal) direction and strength of dependence between two variables (events), Xi and Xj , is fundamental for all science. Our survey of decades-long literature on statistical dependence reveals that most assume symmetry in the…
We use a system of first-order partial differential equations that characterize the moment generating function of the $d$-variate standard normal distribution to construct a class of affine invariant tests for normality in any dimension. We…
We consider the problem of inference on the signs of $n>1$ parameters. We aim to provide $1-\alpha$ post-hoc confidence bounds on the number of positive and negative (or non-positive) parameters. The guarantee is simultaneous, for all…
We propose optimal Bayesian two-sample tests for testing equality of high-dimensional mean vectors and covariance matrices between two populations. In many applications including genomics and medical imaging, it is natural to assume that…
In this paper we tackle the ANOVA problem for directional data (with particular emphasis on geological data) by having recourse to the Le Cam methodology usually reserved for linear multivariate analysis. We construct locally and…
We study the problem of detecting multiple change points in the mean vectors of an independent sequence of high-dimensional observations. We propose a family of ridge-regularized CUSUM statistics built upon the adaptable ridge-regularized…
We are interested in testing general linear hypotheses in a high-dimensional multivariate linear regression model. The framework includes many well-studied problems such as two-sample tests for equality of population means, MANOVA and…
In this paper, we propose a new test for testing the equality of two population covariance matrices in the ultra-high dimensional setting that the dimension is much larger than the sizes of both of the two samples. Our proposed methodology…
Subjects in clinical studies that investigate paired body parts can carry a disease on either both sides (bilateral) or a single side (unilateral) of the organs. Data in such studies may consist of both bilateral and unilateral records.…
The simple and partial Mantel tests are routinely used in many areas of evolutionary biology to assess the significance of the association between two or more matrices of distances relative to the same pairs of individuals or demes. Partial…
This paper is motivated by the comparison of genetic networks based on microarray samples. The aim is to test whether the differences observed between two inferred Gaussian graphical models come from real differences or arise from…
In this paper, we consider procedures for testing hypotheses on the dimension of the linear span generated by a growing number of $p\times p$ covariance matrices from independent $q$ populations. Under a proper limiting scheme where all the…
Two key tasks in high-dimensional regularized regression are tuning the regularization strength for accurate predictions and estimating the out-of-sample risk. It is known that the standard approach -- $k$-fold cross-validation -- is…
We propose a two-sample test for the means of high-dimensional data when the data dimension is much larger than the sample size. Hotelling's classical $T^2$ test does not work for this "large $p$, small $n$" situation. The proposed test…
