In this paper, we establish a high-dimensional CLT for the sample mean of $p$-dimensional spatial data observed over irregularly spaced sampling sites in $\mathbb{R}^d$, allowing the dimension $p$ to be much larger than the sample size $n$.…

We study the problem of robustly estimating the mean or location parameter without moment assumptions. We show that for a large class of symmetric distributions, the same error as in the Gaussian setting can be achieved efficiently. The…

We consider the detection problem of correlations in a $p$-dimensional Gaussian vector, when we observe $n$ independent, identically distributed random vectors, for $n$ and $p$ large. We assume that the covariance matrix varies in some…
