Concentration inequalities for dependent Random variables via the martingale method

open access: yes, 2008
The martingale method is used to establish concentration inequalities for a class of dependent random sequences on a countable state space, with the constants in the inequalities expressed in terms of certain mixing coefficients.

Modified log-Sobolev inequalities and two-level concentration

open access: yes, 2020
We consider a generic modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality (mLSI) of the form $\mathrm{Ent}_{\mu}(e^f) \le \tfrac{\rho}{2} \mathbb{E}_\mu e^f \Gamma(f)^2$ for some difference operator $\Gamma$, and show how it implies two-level concentration ...

A concentration inequality for product spaces

open access: yesJournal of Functional Analysis, 2016
We prove a concentration inequality which asserts that, under some mild regularity conditions, every random variable defined on the product of sufficiently many probability spaces exhibits pseudorandom behavior.

Concentration Inequalities for Smooth Random Fields [PDF]

open access: yesTheory of Probability & Its Applications, 2013
In this note we derive a sharp concentration inequality for the supremum of a smooth random field over a finite dimensional set. It is shown that this supremum can be bounded with high probability by the value of the field at some deterministic point plus an intrinsic dimension of the optimisation problem.

Inequalities in cognitive impairment among older adults in China and the associated social determinants: a decomposition approach

open access: yesInternational Journal for Equity in Health, 2021

Concentration inequality for evolutionary trees

open access: yesJournal of Multivariate Analysis, 2009
AbstractMaximum likelihood inferred topologies are commonly used to draw conclusions in evolutionary biology and molecular evolution. Considering the sampling error when estimating the topology is a critical issue. Bootstrap-based methods are the most popular tools to assess the robustness of clades, i.e.

Addressing the huge poor-rich gap of inequalities in accessing safe childbirth care: A first step to achieving universal maternal health coverage in Tanzania.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
IntroductionDespite skilled attendance during childbirth has been linked with the reduction of maternal deaths, equality in accessing this safe childbirth care is highly needed to achieving universal maternal health coverage.

Global and regional temporal changes in cross‐country inequalities of site‐specific osteoarthritis burden, 1990–2021

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective This study examined the global and regional temporal changes in cross‐country inequalities of site‐specific osteoarthritis (OA) burden from 1990 to 2021. Methods Age‐standardized years lived with disability rate for site‐specific OA across 204 countries/territories were obtained from the Global Burden of Diseases Study (GBD) 2021.
