Dimension-agnostic inference using cross U-statistics [PDF]
Classical asymptotic theory for statistical inference usually involves calibrating a statistic by fixing the dimension $d$ while letting the sample size $n$ increase to infinity.

Examination of myeloperoxidase activity, as an indicator of inflammation in obese participants with metabolic syndrome [PDF]
Introduction. Obesity is a complex metabolic disorder and one of the most common modern health problems. Numerous studies indicate association between chronic low-grade inflammatory state and obesity.

Rates of convergence for random forests via generalized U-statistics [PDF]
Random forests remain among the most popular off-the-shelf supervised learning algorithms. Despite their well-documented empirical success, however, until recently, few theoretical results were available to describe their performance and behavior.

A Novel Mixed Reality Solution Based on Learning Environment for Sutures in Minor Surgery
Minor Surgery Sutures is a fundamental skill for healthcare professionals. However, in the educational field, the practice of suturing is sometimes limited and reduced, with more theoretical than practical study. In order to facilitate learning, our goal

Approximating high-dimensional infinite-order $U$-statistics: Statistical and computational guarantees [PDF]
We study the problem of distributional approximations to high-dimensional non-degenerate $U$-statistics with random kernels of diverging orders. Infinite-order $U$-statistics (IOUS) are a useful tool for constructing simultaneous prediction intervals ...

On the rate of convergence of degenerate U-statistics
Let X, X1, X2, ... be independent identically distributed random variables taking values in a measurable space (Ω, ℜ). Let h(x, y) be real valued measurable symmetric function of the arguments x, y ∈ ℜ. Assume that Eh(x, X)= 0, for all x.

Since 1999, Estonia has conducted the National Forest Inventory (NFI) on the basis of sample plots. This paper presents a new module, incorporating remote-sensing feature variables from airborne laser scanning (ALS) and from multispectral satellite ...

Gini Regressions and Heteroskedasticity
We propose an Aitken estimator for Gini regression. The suggested A-Gini estimator is proven to be a U-statistics. Monte Carlo simulations are provided to deal with heteroskedasticity and to make some comparisons between the generalized least squares ...

An optimal labeling of a graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges is an injective assignment of the first $n$ nonnegative integers to the vertices, that induces, for each edge, a weight given by the sum of the labels of its end-vertices with the ...
