We present a new method for estimating the frontier of a multidimensional sample. The estimator is based on a kernel regression on the power-transformed data. We assume that the exponent of the transformation goes to infinity while the…

Recent outer bounds on the capacity region of Gaussian interference channels are generalized to $m$-user channels with $m>2$ and asymmetric powers and crosstalk coefficients. The bounds are again shown to give the sum-rate capacity for…

To better understand the theoretical behavior of large neural networks, several works have analyzed the case where a network's width tends to infinity. In this regime, the effect of random initialization and the process of training a neural…
Local polynomial density (LPD) estimators are widely used for inference on boundary features of the density function. Contrary to conventional wisdom, we show that kernel choice substantially affects efficiency. Theory, simulations, and…
