The latter consists of both a drift term and a generalized power law trend. The memory parameter of the stochastic component and the power parameter of the deterministic trend component are both considered unknown real numbers to be estimated and belonging to arbitrarily large compact sets. Thus, our model captures different forms of nonstationarity and noninvertibility as well as a very flexible deterministic specification. As in related settings, the proof of consistency (which is a prerequisite for proving asymptotic normality) is challenging due to non-uniform convergence of the objective function over a large admissible parameter space and due to the competition between stochastic and deterministic components. As expected, parameter estimates related to the deterministic component are shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal only for parts of the parameter space depending on the relative strength of the stochastic and deterministic components. In contrast, we establish consistency and asymptotic normality of parameter estimates related to the stochastic component for the entire parameter space. Furthermore, the asymptotic distribution of the latter estimates is unaffected by the presence of the deterministic component, even when this is not consistently estimable. We also include Monte Carlo simulations to illustrate our results.","PeriodicalId":49272,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Statistics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45592747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stepanova, Lee Thompson","doi":"10.1214/22-ejs1998","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1214/22-ejs1998","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract: We revisit the problem of designing an efficient binary classifier in a challenging high-dimensional framework. The model under study assumes some local dependence structure among feature variables represented by a block-diagonal covariance matrix with a growing number of blocks of an arbitrary, but fixed size. The blocks correspond to non-overlapping independent groups of strongly correlated features. To assess the relevance of a particular block in predicting the response, we introduce a measure of “signal strength” pertaining to each feature block. This measure is then used to specify a sparse model of our interest. We further propose a threshold-based feature selector which operates as a screen-and-clean scheme integrated into a linear classifier: the data is subject to screening and hard threshold cleaning to filter out the blocks that contain no signals. Asymptotic properties of the proposed classifiers are studied when the sample size n depends on the number of feature blocks b, and the sample size goes to infinity with b at a slower rate than b. The new classifiers, which are fully adaptive to unknown parameters of the model, are shown to perform asymptotically optimally in a large part of the classification region. The numerical study confirms good analytical properties of the new classifiers that compare favorably to the existing threshold-based procedure used in a similar context.","PeriodicalId":49272,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Statistics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47611113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Zhu","doi":"10.1214/22-ejs1999","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1214/22-ejs1999","url":null,"abstract":"Sufficient Dimension Reduction (SDR) becomes an important tool for mitigating the curse of dimensionality in high dimensional regression analysis. Recently, Flexible SDR (FSDR) has been proposed to extend SDR by finding lower dimensional projections of transformed explanatory variables. The dimensions of the projections however cannot fully represent the extent of data reduction FSDR can achieve. As a consequence, optimality and other theoretical properties of FSDR are currently not well understood. In this article, we propose to use the σ-field associated with the projections, together with their dimensions to fully characterize FSDR, and refer to the σ-field as the FSDR σ-field. We further introduce the concept of minimal FSDR σ-field and consider FSDR projections with the minimal σfield optimal. Under some mild conditions, we show that the minimal FSDR σ-field exists, attaining the lowest dimensionality at the same time. To estimate the minimal FSDR σ-field, we propose a two-stage procedure called the Generalized Kernel Dimension Reduction (GKDR) method and partially establish its consistency property under weak conditions. Extensive simulation experiments demonstrate that the GKDRmethod can effectively find the minimal FSDR σ-field and outperform other existing methods. The application of GKDR to a real life air pollution data set sheds new light on the connections between atmospheric conditions and air quality.

Recent theoretical advance- ments of tensor decomposition have facilitated signiﬁcant development of various tensor regression models. The focus of most of the available lit- erature has been on the Canonical Polyadic (CP) decomposition and its variants for the regression coeﬃcient tensor. A CP decomposed coeﬃcient tensor enables estimation with relatively small sample size, but it may not always capture the underlying complex structure in the data. In this work, we leverage the recently developed concept of tubal rank and develop a tensor regression model, wherein the coeﬃcient tensor is decomposed into two components: a low tubal rank tensor and a structured sparse one. We ﬁrst address the issue of identiﬁability of the two components comprising the coeﬃcient tensor and subsequently develop a fast and scalable Alternating Minimization algorithm to solve the convex regularized program. Further, we provide ﬁnite sample error bounds under high dimensional scaling for the model parameters. The performance of the model is assessed on synthetic data and is also used in an application involving data from an intelligent tutoring platform.","PeriodicalId":49272,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Statistics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46715850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
