Consider two forms of sampling from a population: (i) drawing $s$ samples of $n$ elements with replacement and (ii) drawing a single sample of $ns$ elements. In this paper, under the setting where the descending order population frequency…

Variance and Fisher information are ingredients of the Cramer-Rao inequality. We regard Fisher information as a Riemannian metric on a quantum statistical manifold and choose monotonicity under coarse graining as the fundamental property of…

We propose the generalised Fisher information or the one-parameter extended class of the Fisher information for the case of one random variable. This new form of the Fisher information is obtained from the intriguing connection between the…

The Fisher information matrix is a quantity of fundamental importance for information geometry and asymptotic statistics. In practice, it is widely used to quickly estimate the expected information available in a data set and guide…

Recent work has explored data thinning, a generalization of sample splitting that involves decomposing a (possibly matrix-valued) random variable into independent components. In the special case of a $n \times p$ random matrix with…

Skew-symmetric densities recently received much attention in the literature, giving rise to increasingly general families of univariate and multivariate skewed densities. Most of those families, however, suffer from the inferential drawback…

We consider the processing of statistical samples $X\sim P_\theta$ by a channel $p(y|x)$, and characterize how the statistical information from the samples for estimating the parameter $\theta\in\mathbb{R}^d$ can scale with the mutual…

In this paper, we analyze the impact of compressed sensing with complex random matrices on Fisher information and the Cram\'{e}r-Rao Bound (CRB) for estimating unknown parameters in the mean value function of a complex multivariate normal…

The Fisher information matrix (FIM) plays an important role in the analysis of parameter inference and system design problems. In a number of cases, however, the statistical data distribution and its associated information matrix are either…

We establish several convexity properties for the entropy and Fisher information of mixtures of centered Gaussian distributions. First, we prove that if $X_1, X_2$ are independent scalar Gaussian mixtures, then the entropy of $\sqrt{t}X_1 +…

Let ${\Gamma}_n$ be an $n\times n$ Haar-invariant orthogonal matrix. Let ${ Z}_n$ be the $p\times q$ upper-left submatrix of ${\Gamma}_n$ and ${G}_n$ be a $p\times q$ matrix whose $pq$ entries are independent standard normals, where $p$ and…

This paper deals with Cram\'er-Rao inequalities in the context of nonextensive statistics and in estimation theory. It gives characterizations of generalized q-Gaussian distributions, and introduces generalized versions of Fisher…

In this brief note we compute the Fisher information of a family of generalized normal distributions. Fisher information is usually defined for regular distributions, i.e. continuously differentiable (log) density functions whose support…

This paper studies semiparametric Fisher information in models parametrized by general normed spaces. The main contribution is to establish that positive semiparametric Fisher information is equivalent to the gradient of the parameter of…

We study the behavior of a real $p$-dimensional Wishart random matrix with $n$ degrees of freedom when $n,p\rightarrow\infty$ but $p/n\rightarrow 0$. We establish the existence of phase transitions when $p$ grows at the order…

The Fisher infinitesimal model is a classical model of phenotypic trait inheritance in quantitative genetics. Here, we prove that it encompasses a remarkable convexity structure which is compatible with a selection function having a convex…

Evolving feature densities across batches of training data bias cross-validation, making model selection and assessment unreliable (\cite{sugiyama2012machine}). This work takes a distributed density estimation angle to the training setting…

We propose a modified $\chi^{\beta}$-divergence, give some of its properties, and show that this leads to the definition of a generalized Fisher information. We give generalized Cram\'er-Rao inequalities, involving this Fisher information,…

Information theory is a powerful framework to capture aspects of dynamical systems with multiple degrees of freedom. Mathematically, the dynamics can be represented as a continuous curve $\mathcal{C}$ on a suitable hyperplane in flat space…

Covariance matrix estimation arises in multivariate problems including multivariate normal sampling models and regression models where random effects are jointly modeled, e.g. random-intercept, random-slope models. A Bayesian analysis of…
