摘要:In this article, we derive the minimax detection boundary for testing a sub-block of variables in a precision matrix under the Gaussian distribution. Compared to the results on the minimum rate of signals for testing precision matrices in literature, our result gives the exact minimum signal strength in a precision matrix that can be detected. We propose a thresholding test that is able to achieve the minimax detection boundary under certain cases by adaptively choosing the threshold level. Th...

摘要:We develop the theory of hypothesis testing based on the e -value, a notion of evidence that, unlike the p -value, allows for effortlessly combining results from several studies in the common scenario where the decision to perform a new study may depend on previous outcomes. Tests based on e -values are safe, i.e. they preserve type-I error guarantees, under such optional continuation. We define growth rate optimality (GRO) as an analogue of power in an optional continuation context, and we sh...

摘要:Understanding treatment effect heterogeneity is vital to many scientific fields because the same treatment may affect different individuals differently. Quantile regression provides a natural framework for modelling such heterogeneity. We propose a new method for inference on heterogeneous quantile treatment effects (HQTE) in the presence of high-dimensional covariates. Our estimator combines an l(1)-penalised regression adjustment with a quantile-specific bias correction scheme based on rank ...
