Extracting approximate eigenpairs from a prescribed subspace is of fundamental importance in eigenvalue computation. While projecting the target eigenvector onto the subspace yields satisfactory accuracy, extracting an approximate eigenpair…
In many important statistical analyses, the number of covariates $p$ often exceeds the data size $n$, a regime commonly referred to as high-dimensional. While considerable progress has been made in high-dimensional regression under the…

In many modern applications of deep learning the neural network has many more parameters than the data points used for its training. Motivated by those practices, a large body of recent theoretical research has been devoted to studying…
General ridge estimators are widely used in the general linear model because they possess desirable properties such as linear sufficiency and linear admissibility. However, when the covariance matrix of the error term is partially unknown,…

We consider hypothesis testing in instrumental variable regression models with few included exogenous covariates but many instruments -- possibly more than the number of observations. We show that a ridge-regularised version of the…
