Higher Order Asymptotics: Applications to Satellite Conjunction and Boundary Problems

Higher-order asymptotics provide accurate approximations for use in parametric statistical modelling. In this thesis, we investigate using higher-order approximations in two-specific settings, with a particular emphasis on the tangent exponential model. Th ...

DATED: GUIDELINES FOR CREATING SYNTHETIC DATASETS FOR ENGINEERING DESIGN APPLICATIONS

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Cyril Picard, Faez Ahmed

Exploiting the recent advancements in artificial intelligence, showcased by ChatGPT and DALL-E, in real-world applications necessitates vast, domain-specific, and publicly accessible datasets. Unfortunately, the scarcity of such datasets poses a significan ...

Diffusion in Style

Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta, Mahmut Sami Arpa, Martin Nicolas Everaert

We present Diffusion in Style, a simple method to adapt Stable Diffusion to any desired style, using only a small set of target images. It is based on the key observation that the style of the images generated by Stable Diffusion is tied to the initial lat ...

Meta-Learners for Estimation of Causal Effects: Finite Sample Cross-Fit Performance

Gabriel Okasa

Estimation of causal effects using machine learning methods has become an active research field in econometrics. In this paper, we study the finite sample performance of meta-learners for estimation of heterogeneous treatment effects under the usage of sam ...

Sampling-Based AQP in Modern Analytical Engines

Anastasia Ailamaki, Viktor Sanca

As the data volume grows, reducing the query execution times remains an elusive goal. While approximate query processing (AQP) techniques present a principled method to trade off accuracy for faster queries in analytics, the sample creation is often consid ...

From Generalisation Error to Transportation-cost Inequalities and Back

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Amedeo Roberto Esposito

In this work, we connect the problem of bounding the expected generalisation error with transportation-cost inequalities. Exposing the underlying pattern behind both approaches we are able to generalise them and go beyond Kullback- Leibler Divergences/Mutu ...

Locally Differentially-Private Randomized Response for Discrete Distribution Learning

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Adriano Pastore

We consider a setup in which confidential i.i.d. samples X1, . . . , Xn from an unknown finite-support distribution p are passed through n copies of a discrete privatization chan- nel (a.k.a. mechanism) producing outputs Y1, . . . , Yn. The channel law gua ...

Tests of mutual independence among several random vectors using univariate and multivariate ranks of nearest neighbours

Soham Sarkar

Testing mutual independence among several random vectors of arbitrary dimensions is a challenging problem in Statistics, and it has gained considerable interest in recent years. In this article, we propose some nonparametric tests based on different notion ...

Some first results on the consistency of spatial regression with partial differential equation regularization

Fabio Nobile, Eleonora Arnone

We study the consistency of the estimator in spatial regression with partial differential equa-tion (PDE) regularization. This new smoothing technique allows to accurately estimate spatial fields over complex two-dimensional domains, starting from noisy ob ...
