Motivated by the low bias of the leave-one-out cross validation (LO) method, we propose a computationally efficient closed-form approximate leave-one-out formula (ALO) for a large class of regularized estimators.
Methodology
Using a sample from a population to estimate the proportion of the population with a certain category label is a broadly important problem.
Methodology
State space modelling is an efficient and flexible method for statistical inference of a broad class of time series and other data.
Computation Methodology
First, we extend the standard Probability Hypothesis Density (PHD) filter for multiple type of targets, each with distinct detection properties, to develop multiple target, multiple type filtering, N-type PHD filter, where $N\geq2$, for handling confusions among target types.
Applications
Using ABC, which depends on many simulations from the considered model, we develop an inferential framework to learn parameters of a stochastic numerical simulator of volcanic eruption.
Computation Applications
This paper introduces a generalised version of importance subsampling for time series reduction/aggregation in optimisation-based power system planning models.
Applications
In this paper, we present a method for computing the marginal likelihood, also known as the model likelihood or Bayesian evidence, from Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), or other sampled posterior distributions.
Computation Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics
In this paper, we develop new methods for estimating average treatment effects in observational studies, focusing on settings with more than two treatment levels under unconfoundedness given pre-treatment variables.
Methodology
We propose the holdout randomization test (HRT), an approach to feature selection using black box predictive models.
Methodology
In this paper we propose a two-sample test based on copula entropy (CE).
