We place ourselves in the setting of high-dimensional statistical inference, where the number of variables $p$ in a data set of interest is of the same order of magnitude as the number of observations $n$. More formally, we study the…
We introduce a family of coefficients based on U-statistics that generalize the notion of correlation and explore their properties in the large dimensional multivariate case, showing that in the null case of uncorrelated variables, the…

Given a sample $X_0,...,X_{n-1}$ from a $d$-dimensional stationary time series $(X_t)_{t \in \mathbb{Z}}$, the most commonly used estimator for the spectral density matrix $F(\theta)$ at a given frequency $\theta \in [0,2\pi)$ is the…
It is well known the sample covariance has a consistent bias in the spectrum, for example spectrum of Wishart matrix follows the Marchenko-Pastur law. We in this work introduce an iterative algorithm 'Concent' that actively eliminate this…
In this paper, we study the classical problem of estimating the proportion of a finite population. First, we consider a fixed sample size method and derive an explicit sample size formula which ensures a mixed criterion of absolute and…
We propose a new estimator for the high-dimensional linear regression model with observation error in the design where the number of coefficients is potentially larger than the sample size. The main novelty of our procedure is that the…
The network scale-up method enables researchers to estimate the size of hidden populations, such as drug injectors and sex workers, using sampled social network data. The basic scale-up estimator offers advantages over other size estimation…
Spatial-sign covariance matrix (SSCM) is an important substitute of sample covariance matrix (SCM) in robust statistics. This paper investigates the SSCM on its asymptotic spectral behaviors under high-dimensional elliptical populations,…
In statistics, assuming samples are independent is reasonable. However, this property can fail to hold for the features, a distinction that has led to several lines of work aiming to remove the latter assumption of independence present in…
In this paper we show weak convergence of the empirical eigenvalue distribution and of the weighted spectral measure of the Jacobi ensemble, when one or both parameters grow faster than the dimension $n$. In these cases the limit measure is…
Let $\mathbf X=(X_{jk})$ denote a $n\times p$ random matrix with entries $X_{jk}$, which are independent for $1\le j\le n, 1\le k\le p$. Let $n,p$ tend to infinity such that $\frac np=y+O(n^{-1})\in(0,1]$. For those values of $n,p$ we…
We introduce a linear-scaling stochastic method to compute real-space maps of any positive local spectral operator in a tight-binding model. By employing positive-definite estimators, the sampling error at each site can be rigorously…
The main features of the statistical approach to inverse problems are described on the example of a linear model with additive noise. The approach does not use any Bayesian hypothesis regarding an unknown object; instead, the standard…

Parameter estimation is one of the most important tasks in statistics, and is key to helping people understand the distribution behind a sample of observations. Traditionally parameter estimation is done either by closed-form solutions…
