Optimal estimation of a large-dimensional covariance matrix under Stein's loss [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper revisits the methodology of Stein (1975, 1986) for estimating a covariance matrix in the setting where the number of variables can be of the same magnitude as the sample size.

Second-order Stein: SURE for SURE and other applications in high-dimensional inference [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Statistics, 2018
Stein's formula states that a random variable of the form $z^\top f(z) - {\rm{div}} f(z)$ is mean-zero for all functions $f$ with integrable gradient. Here, ${\rm{div}} f$ is the divergence of the function $f$ and $z$ is a standard normal vector.

Sparse Bayesian Learning with Stein's Unbiased Risk Estimator based Hyperparameter Optimization

open access: yes2022 56th Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers, 2022
Sparse Bayesian Learning (SBL) is a popular compressed sensing technique in which the sparsifying prior for the unknowns in the underdetermined linear system is modeled as a Gaussian scale mixture. This leads to a number of hyperparameters which involve at least the variance profile and the noise variance, but also possible parameters in the variance ...

Sparse Multinomial Logistic Regression via Approximate Message Passing

open access: yes, 2016
For the problem of multi-class linear classification and feature selection, we propose approximate message passing approaches to sparse multinomial logistic regression (MLR).

The Forecasting Value of New Crop Futures: A Decision-Making Framework [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The statistical forecasting efficiency of new crop corn and soybean futures is the topic of frequent academic inquiry. However, few studies address the usefulness of these forecasts to economic agents??? decision making.

Directional Bilateral Filters

open access: yes, 2014
We propose a bilateral filter with a locally controlled domain kernel for directional edge-preserving smoothing. Traditional bilateral filters use a range kernel, which is responsible for edge preservation, and a fixed domain kernel that performs ...

Adolescents' trajectories of mental health in the MYRIAD trial

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study explored adolescent's mental health trajectories over the course of a school‐based mindfulness‐based intervention trial (MYRIAD). It examined whether intervention condition (mindfulness vs. teaching‐as‐usual), individual‐level and contextual‐level factors were associated with different trajectories.

Linking Age‐Diversity Practices and Company Ratings Over Time: Evidence From Employer Reviews and a Longitudinal Experiment

open access: yesJournal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global populations age, organizations face increasing pressure to support an age‐diverse workforce. Although age‐diversity practices have been shown to yield individual benefits, their temporal impact on broader evaluations of the organization such as employees' company ratings remains underexplored.

On Degrees of Freedom of Projection Estimators with Applications to Multivariate Nonparametric Regression

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper, we consider the nonparametric regression problem with multivariate predictors. We provide a characterization of the degrees of freedom and divergence for estimators of the unknown regression function, which are obtained as outputs of ...
