A law of the iterated logarithm for Grenander's estimator [PDF]
Stoch Process Their Appl, 2015 In this note we prove the following law of the iterated logarithm for the Grenander estimator of a monotone decreasing density: If $f(t_0) > 0$, $f'(t_0) < 0$, and $f'$ is continuous in a neighborhood of $t_0$, then \begin{eqnarray*} \limsup_{n ...

Semiparametric discovery and estimation of interaction in mixed exposures using stochastic interventions. [PDF]
J Causal InferenceUnderstanding the complex interactions among multiple environmental exposures is critical for assessing their combined impact on health outcomes. This study introduces InterXshift, a novel semiparametric method that provides a nonparametric definition of

Local linear approach: Conditional density estimate for functional and censored data
Demonstratio Mathematica, 2022 Let YY be a random real response, which is subject to right censoring by another random variable CC. In this paper, we study the nonparametric local linear estimation of the conditional density of a scalar response variable and when the covariable takes ...

Nonparametric inference for interventional effects with multiple mediators
Journal of Causal Inference, 2021 Understanding the pathways whereby an intervention has an effect on an outcome is a common scientific goal. A rich body of literature provides various decompositions of the total intervention effect into pathway-specific effects.

Two symmetric and computationally efficient Gini correlations
Dependence Modeling, 2020 Standard Gini correlation plays an important role in measuring the dependence between random variables with heavy-tailed distributions. It is based on the covariance between one variable and the rank of the other. Hence for each pair of random variables,

Individualized treatment rules under stochastic treatment cost constraints
Journal of Causal Inference, 2022 Estimation and evaluation of individualized treatment rules have been studied extensively, but real-world treatment resource constraints have received limited attention in existing methods.

On the use of L-functionals in regression models
Open Mathematics, 2023 In this article, we survey and unify a large class or LL-functionals of the conditional distribution of the response variable in regression models.

A novel approach to compare the spectral densities of some uncorrelated cyclostationary time series
Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2022 Our primary objective in this article is to compare the spectral densities of some cyclostationary time series. By using the limiting distributions of the discrete Fourier transform, a novel approach is introduced to determine whether the spectral ...

A fundamental measure of treatment effect heterogeneity
Journal of Causal Inference, 2021 The stratum-specific treatment effect function is a random variable giving the average treatment effect (ATE) for a randomly drawn stratum of potential confounders a clinician may use to assign treatment.

Consistency of mixture models with a prior on the number of components
Dependence Modeling, 2023 This article establishes general conditions for posterior consistency of Bayesian finite mixture models with a prior on the number of components. That is, we provide sufficient conditions under which the posterior concentrates on neighborhoods of the ...
