Causal inference with recurrent and competing events

Mats Julius Stensrud, Pal Christie Ryalen, Matias Janvin

Many research questions concern treatment effects on outcomes that can recur several times in the same individual. For example, medical researchers are interested in treatment effects on hospitalizations in heart failure patients and sports injuries in ath ...

Unbiased likelihood-based estimation of Wright-Fisher diffusion processes

In this paper we propose an unbiased Monte Carlo maximum likelihood estimator for discretely observed Wright-Fisher diffusions. Our approach is based on exact simulation techniques that are of special interest for diffusion processes defined on a bounded d ...

Peak Value-at-Risk Estimation for Stochastic Differential Equations using Occupation Measures

Matteo Raphael Tacchi

This paper proposes an algorithm to upper-bound maximal quantile statistics of a state function over the course of a Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE) system execution. This chance-peak problem is posed as a nonconvex program aiming to maximize the Va ...

Nonparametric estimation for SDE with sparsely sampled paths: An FDA perspective

Victor Panaretos, Neda Mohammadi Jouzdani

We consider the problem of nonparametric estimation of the drift and diffusion coefficients of a Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE), based on n independent replicates {Xi(t) : t is an element of [0 , 1]}13 d B(t), where alpha is an element of {0 , 1} a ...

Stochastic distributed learning with gradient quantization and double-variance reduction

Sebastian Urban Stich, Konstantin Mishchenko

We consider distributed optimization over several devices, each sending incremental model updates to a central server. This setting is considered, for instance, in federated learning. Various schemes have been designed to compress the model updates in orde ...

Filtered data and eigenfunction estimators for statistical inference of multiscale and interacting diffusion processes

Andrea Zanoni

We study the problem of learning unknown parameters of stochastic dynamical models from data. Often, these models are high dimensional and contain several scales and complex structures. One is then interested in obtaining a reduced, coarse-grained descript ...

Does jackknife scale really matter for accurate large-scale structure covariances?

Ginevra Favole

The jackknife method gives an internal covariance estimate for large-scale structure surveys and allows model-independent errors on cosmological parameters. Using the SDSS-III BOSS CMASS sample, we study how the jackknife size and number of resamplings imp ...

No-Regret Learning from Partially Observed Data in Repeated Auctions

Maryam Kamgarpour, Orcun Karaca

We study a general class of repeated auctions, such as the ones found in electricity markets, as multi-agent games between the bidders. In such a repeated setting, bidders can adapt their strategies online using no-regret algorithms based on the data obser ...

Adaptive isogeometric analysis on two-dimensional trimmed domains based on a hierarchical approach

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Rafael Vazquez Hernandez, Luca Coradello

The focus of this work is on the development of an error-driven isogeometric framework, capable of automatically performing an adaptive simulation in the context of second- and fourth-order, elliptic partial differential equations defined on two-dimensiona ...

Frequency domain theory for functional time series: Variance decomposition and an invariance principle

Neda Mohammadi Jouzdani

This paper is concerned with frequency domain theory for functional time series, which are temporally dependent sequences of functions in a Hilbert space. We consider a variance decomposition, which is more suitable for such a data structure than the varia ...
