We obtain the minimax rate for a mean location model with a bounded star-shaped set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ constraint on the mean, in an adversarially corrupted data setting with Gaussian noise. We assume an unknown fraction $\epsilon…

We quantify the minimax rate for a nonparametric regression model over a star-shaped function class $\mathcal{F}$ with bounded diameter. We obtain a minimax rate of ${\varepsilon^{\ast}}^2\wedge\mathrm{diam}(\mathcal{F})^2$ where…

We consider a convex constrained Gaussian sequence model and characterize necessary and sufficient conditions for the least squares estimator (LSE) to be minimax optimal. For a closed convex set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ we observe…

We study the problem of robust mean estimation with adversarially contaminated data under star-shaped constraints in a heavy-tailed noise setting, where only a finite second moment $ \sigma ^2 $ is assumed. For a contamination level $…

Consider the standard linear regression model $\y = \Xmat \betastar + w$, where $\y \in \real^\numobs$ is an observation vector, $\Xmat \in \real^{\numobs \times \pdim}$ is a design matrix, $\betastar \in \real^\pdim$ is the unknown…

We develop polynomial-time algorithms for near-optimal minimax mean estimation under $\ell_2$-squared loss in a Gaussian sequence model under convex constraints. The parameter space is an origin-symmetric, type-2 convex body $K \subset…

We study the minimax rate of estimation in nonparametric exponential family regression under star-shaped constraints. Specifically, the parameter space $K$ is a star-shaped set contained within a bounded box $[-M, M]^n$, where $M$ is a…

We prove minimax bounds for estimating Gaussian location mixtures on $\mathbb{R}^d$ under the squared $L^2$ and the squared Hellinger loss functions. Under the squared $L^2$ loss, we prove that the minimax rate is upper and lower bounded by…

In the standard Gaussian linear measurement model $Y=X\mu_0+\xi \in \mathbb{R}^m$ with a fixed noise level $\sigma>0$, we consider the problem of estimating the unknown signal $\mu_0$ under a convex constraint $\mu_0 \in K$, where $K$ is a…

We study the problem of designing minimax procedures in linear regression under the quantile risk. We start by considering the realizable setting with independent Gaussian noise, where for any given noise level and distribution of inputs,…

We consider a general model for high-dimensional empirical risk minimization whereby the data $\mathbf{x}_i$ are $d$-dimensional Gaussian vectors, the model is parametrized by $\mathbf{\Theta}\in\mathbb{R}^{d\times k}$, and the loss depends…

Sparse linear regression is one of the classical and extensively studied problems in high-dimensional statistics and compressed sensing. Despite the substantial body of literature dedicated to this problem, the precise determination of its…

Consider the standard Gaussian linear regression model $Y=X\theta+\epsilon$, where $Y\in R^n$ is a response vector and $ X\in R^{n*p}$ is a design matrix. Numerous work have been devoted to building efficient estimators of $\theta$ when $p$…

In this paper we study minimax and adaptation rates in general isotonic regression. For uniform deterministic and random designs in $[0,1]^d$ with $d\ge 2$ and $N(0,1)$ noise, the minimax rate for the $\ell_2$ risk is known to be bounded…

We develop minimax optimal risk bounds for the general learning task consisting in predicting as well as the best function in a reference set $\mathcal{G}$ up to the smallest possible additive term, called the convergence rate. When the…

In this paper, we study the minimax rates and provide an implementable convex algorithm for Poisson inverse problems under weak sparsity and physical constraints. In particular we assume the model $y_i \sim \mbox{Poisson}(Ta_i^{\top}f^*)$…

We consider the problem of robust mean and location estimation w.r.t. any pseudo-norm of the form $x\in\mathbb{R}^d\to ||x||_S = \sup_{v\in S}<v,x>$ where $S$ is any symmetric subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$. We show that the deviation-optimal…

We develop minimax optimal risk bounds for the general learning task consisting in predicting as well as the best function in a reference set G up to the smallest possible additive term, called the convergence rate. When the reference set…

The effect of measurement errors in discriminant analysis is investigated. Given observations $Z=X+\epsilon$, where $\epsilon$ denotes a random noise, the goal is to predict the density of $X$ among two possible candidates $f$ and $g$. We…

This paper considers point and interval estimation of the $\ell_q$ loss of an estimator in high-dimensional linear regression with random design. We establish the minimax rate for estimating the $\ell_{q}$ loss and the minimax expected…
