We study least-squares trace regression when the parameter is the sum of a $r$-low-rank matrix and a $s$-sparse matrix and a fraction $\epsilon$ of the labels is corrupted. For subgaussian distributions and feature-dependent noise, we…

We observe an unknown function of $d$ variables $f(\boldsymbol{t})$, $\boldsymbol{t} \in[0,1]^d$, in the Gaussian white noise model of intensity $\varepsilon>0$. We assume that the function $f$ is regular and that it is a sum of $k$-variate…

We consider an additive regression model consisting of two components $f^0$ and $g^0$, where the first component $f^0$ is in some sense "smoother" than the second $g^0$. Smoothness is here described in terms of a semi-norm on the class of…

Let $\bx_j = \btheta +\bep_j, j=1,...,n$, be observations of an unknown parameter $\btheta$ in a Euclidean or separable Hilbert space $\scrH$, where $\bep_j$ are noises as random elements in $\scrH$ from a general distribution. We study the…
