We show that when a high-dimensional data matrix is the sum of a low-rank matrix and a random error matrix with independent entries, the low-rank component can be consistently estimated by solving a convex minimization problem. We develop a…

In the context of high-dimensional data, we investigate the one-sample location testing problem. We introduce a max-type test based on the weighted spatial sign, which exhibits exceptional performance, particularly in the presence of sparse…

A fundamental problem in high-dimensional testing is that of global null testing: testing whether the null holds simultaneously in all of $n$ hypotheses. The max test, which uses the smallest of the $n$ marginal p-values as its test…

In this paper, we develop invariance-based procedures for testing and inference in high-dimensional regression models. These procedures, also known as randomization tests, provide several important advantages. First, for the global null…

We investigate high-dimensional sparse regression when both the noise and the design matrix exhibit heavy-tailed behavior. Standard algorithms typically fail in this regime, as heavy-tailed covariates distort the empirical risk geometry. We…
