Concentration-compactness principle associated with Adams' inequality in Lorentz-Sobolev space

open access: yesAdvanced Nonlinear Studies, 2022
The concentration-compactness principle of Lions type in Euclidean space relies on the Pólya-Szegö inequality, which is not available in non-Euclidean settings.

Sharper Concentration Inequalities for Median-of-Mean Processes

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
The Median-of-Mean (MoM) estimation is an efficient statistical method for handling data with contamination. In this paper, we propose a variance-dependent MoM estimation method using the tail probability of a binomial distribution.

Relative Entropy, Gaussian Concentration and Uniqueness of Equilibrium States

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
For a general class of lattice spin systems, we prove that an abstract Gaussian concentration bound implies positivity of the lower relative entropy density. As a consequence, we obtain uniqueness of translation-invariant Gibbs measures from the Gaussian

Use of oral health care services in the United States: unequal, inequitable—a cross-sectional study

open access: yesBMC Oral Health, 2021
Background Social determinants drive disparities in dental visiting. Disparities can be measured simply by comparing outcomes between groups (inequality) but can also consider concepts of social justice or fairness (inequity).

Perturbation of convex risk minimization and its application in differential private learning algorithms

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2017
Convex risk minimization is a commonly used setting in learning theory. In this paper, we firstly give a perturbation analysis for such algorithms, and then we apply this result to differential private learning algorithms.
