We consider the conditional randomization test as a way to account for covariate imbalance in randomized experiments. The test accounts for covariate imbalance by comparing the observed test statistic to the null distribution of the test…

We consider the following detection problem: given a realization of a symmetric matrix ${\mathbf{X}}$ of dimension $n$, distinguish between the hypothesis that all upper triangular variables are i.i.d. Gaussians variables with mean 0 and…

We develop a new rank-based approach for univariate two-sample testing in the presence of missing data which makes no assumptions about the missingness mechanism. This approach is a theoretical extension of the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test…

We consider the problem of testing for the presence of linear relationships between large sets of random variables based on a post-selection inference approach to canonical correlation analysis. The challenge is to adjust for the selection…

Determining the precise rank is an important problem in many large-scale applications with matrix data exploiting low-rank plus noise models. In this paper, we suggest a universal approach to rank inference via residual subsampling (RIRS)…

Studies to compare the survival of two or more groups using time-to-event data are of high importance in medical research. The gold standard is the log-rank test, which is optimal under proportional hazards. As the latter is no simple…
