摘要:We propose a new method for changepoint estimation in partially observed, high-dimensional time series that undergo a simultaneous change in mean in a sparse subset of coordinates. Our first methodological contribution is to introduce a 'MissCUSUM' transformation (a generalisation of the popular cumulative sum statistics), that captures the interaction between the signal strength and the level of missingness in each coordinate. In order to borrow strength across the coordinates, we propose to ...

摘要:Reinforcement learning is a general technique that allows an agent to learn an optimal policy and interact with an environment in sequential decision-making problems. The goodness of a policy is measured by its value function starting from some initial state. The focus of this paper was to construct confidence intervals (CIs) for a policy's value in infinite horizon settings where the number of decision points diverges to infinity. We propose to model the action-value state function (Q-functio...

摘要:When the dimension of data is comparable to or larger than the number of data samples, principal components analysis (PCA) may exhibit problematic high-dimensional noise. In this work, we propose an empirical Bayes PCA method that reduces this noise by estimating a joint prior distribution for the principal components. EB-PCA is based on the classical Kiefer-Wolfowitz non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator for empirical Bayes estimation, distributional results derived from random matrix t...

摘要:Modern high-dimensional methods often adopt the 'bet on sparsity' principle, while in supervised multivariate learning statisticians may face 'dense' problems with a large number of nonzero coefficients. This paper proposes a novel clustered reduced-rank learning (CRL) framework that imposes two joint matrix regularizations to automatically group the features in constructing predictive factors. CRL is more interpretable than low-rank modelling and relaxes the stringent sparsity assumption in v...
