We propose a finite difference scheme for the numerical solution of a two-dimensional singularly perturbed convection-diffusion partial differential equation whose solution features interacting boundary and interior layers, the latter due to discontinuities in source term. The problem is posed on the unit square. The second derivative is multiplied by a singular perturbation parameter, $\epsilon$, while the nature of the first derivative term is such that flow is aligned with a boundary. These two facts mean that solutions tend to exhibit layers of both exponential and characteristic type. We solve the problem using a finite difference method, specially adapted to the discontinuities, and applied on a piecewise-uniform (Shishkin). We prove that that the computed solution converges to the true one at a rate that is independent of the perturbation parameter, and is nearly first-order. We present numerical results that verify that these results are sharp.

We introduce in this paper the numerical analysis of high order both in time and space Lagrange-Galerkin methods for the conservative formulation of the advection-diffusion equation. As time discretization scheme we consider the Backward Differentiation Formulas up to order $q=5$. The development and analysis of the methods are performed in the framework of time evolving finite elements presented in C. M. Elliot and T. Ranner, IMA Journal of Numerical Analysis \textbf{41}, 1696-1845 (2021). The error estimates show through their dependence on the parameters of the equation the existence of different regimes in the behavior of the numerical solution; namely, in the diffusive regime, that is, when the diffusion parameter $\mu$ is large, the error is $O(h^{k+1}+\Delta t^{q})$, whereas in the advective regime, $\mu \ll 1$, the convergence is $O(\min (h^{k},\frac{h^{k+1} }{\Delta t})+\Delta t^{q})$. It is worth remarking that the error constant does not have exponential $\mu ^{-1}$ dependence.

We introduce a novel sampler called the energy based diffusion generator for generating samples from arbitrary target distributions. The sampling model employs a structure similar to a variational autoencoder, utilizing a decoder to transform latent variables from a simple distribution into random variables approximating the target distribution, and we design an encoder based on the diffusion model. Leveraging the powerful modeling capacity of the diffusion model for complex distributions, we can obtain an accurate variational estimate of the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the distributions of the generated samples and the target. Moreover, we propose a decoder based on generalized Hamiltonian dynamics to further enhance sampling performance. Through empirical evaluation, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our method across various complex distribution functions, showcasing its superiority compared to existing methods.

One class of statistical hypothesis testing procedures is the indisputable equivalence tests, whose main objective is to establish practical equivalence rather than the usual statistical significant difference. These hypothesis tests are prone in bioequivalence studies, where one would wish to show that, for example, an existing drug and a new one under development have the same therapeutic effect. In this article, we consider a two-stage randomized (RAND2) p-value utilizing the uniformly most powerful (UMP) p-value in the first stage when multiple two-one-sided hypotheses are of interest. We investigate the behavior of the distribution functions of the two p-values when there are changes in the boundaries of the null or alternative hypothesis or when the chosen parameters are too close to these boundaries. We also consider the behavior of the power functions to an increase in sample size. Specifically, we investigate the level of conservativity to the sample sizes to see if we control the type I error rate when using either of the two p-values for any sample size. In multiple tests, we evaluate the performance of the two p-values in estimating the proportion of true null hypotheses. We conduct a family-wise error rate control using an adaptive Bonferroni procedure with a plug-in estimator to account for the multiplicity that arises from the multiple hypotheses under consideration. We verify the various claims in this research using simulation study and real-world data analysis.

Defining a successful notion of a multivariate quantile has been an open problem for more than half a century, motivating a plethora of possible solutions. Of these, the approach of [8] and [25] leading to M-quantiles, is very appealing for its mathematical elegance combining elements of convex analysis and probability theory. The key idea is the description of a convex function (the K-function) whose gradient (the K-transform) is in one-to-one correspondence between all of R^d and the unit ball in R^d. By analogy with the d=1 case where the K-transform is a cumulative distribution function-like object (an M-distribution), the fact that its inverse is guaranteed to exist lends itself naturally to providing the basis for the definition of a quantile function for all d>=1. Over the past twenty years the resulting M-quantiles have seen applications in a variety of fields, primarily for the purpose of detecting outliers in multidimensional spaces. In this article we prove that for odd d>=3, it is not the gradient but a poly-Laplacian of the K-function that is (almost everywhere) proportional to the density function. For d even one cannot establish a differential equation connecting the K-function with the density. These results show that usage of the K-transform for outlier detection in higher odd-dimensions is in principle flawed, as the K-transform does not originate from inversion of a true M-distribution. We demonstrate these conclusions in two dimensions through examples from non-standard asymmetric distributions. Our examples illustrate a feature of the K-transform whereby regions in the domain with higher density map to larger volumes in the co-domain, thereby producing a magnification effect that moves inliers closer to the boundary of the co-domain than outliers. This feature obviously disrupts any outlier detection mechanism that relies on the inverse K-transform.

A well-balanced second-order finite volume scheme is proposed and analyzed for a 2 X 2 system of non-linear partial differential equations which describes the dynamics of growing sandpiles created by a vertical source on a flat, bounded rectangular table in multiple dimensions. To derive a second-order scheme, we combine a MUSCL type spatial reconstruction with strong stability preserving Runge-Kutta time stepping method. The resulting scheme is ensured to be well-balanced through a modified limiting approach that allows the scheme to reduce to well-balanced first-order scheme near the steady state while maintaining the second-order accuracy away from it. The well-balanced property of the scheme is proven analytically in one dimension and demonstrated numerically in two dimensions. Additionally, numerical experiments reveal that the second-order scheme reduces finite time oscillations, takes fewer time iterations for achieving the steady state and gives sharper resolutions of the physical structure of the sandpile, as compared to the existing first-order schemes of the literature.

We analyze the prediction error of principal component regression (PCR) and prove high probability bounds for the corresponding squared risk conditional on the design. Our first main result shows that PCR performs comparably to the oracle method obtained by replacing empirical principal components by their population counterparts, provided that an effective rank condition holds. On the other hand, if the latter condition is violated, then empirical eigenvalues start to have a significant upward bias, resulting in a self-induced regularization of PCR. Our approach relies on the behavior of empirical eigenvalues, empirical eigenvectors and the excess risk of principal component analysis in high-dimensional regimes.

The causal inference literature frequently focuses on estimating the mean of the potential outcome, whereas the quantiles of the potential outcome may carry important additional information. We propose a universal approach, based on the inverse estimating equations, to generalize a wide class of causal inference solutions from estimating the mean of the potential outcome to its quantiles. We assume that an identifying moment function is available to identify the mean of the threshold-transformed potential outcome, based on which a convenient construction of the estimating equation of quantiles of potential outcome is proposed. In addition, we also give a general construction of the efficient influence functions of the mean and quantiles of potential outcomes, and identify their connection. We motivate estimators for the quantile estimands with the efficient influence function, and develop their asymptotic properties when either parametric models or data-adaptive machine learners are used to estimate the nuisance functions. A broad implication of our results is that one can rework the existing result for mean causal estimands to facilitate causal inference on quantiles, rather than starting from scratch. Our results are illustrated by several examples.

Sensory perception originates from the responses of sensory neurons, which react to a collection of sensory signals linked to various physical attributes of a singular perceptual object. Unraveling how the brain extracts perceptual information from these neuronal responses is a pivotal challenge in both computational neuroscience and machine learning. Here we introduce a statistical mechanical theory, where perceptual information is first encoded in the correlated variability of sensory neurons and then reformatted into the firing rates of downstream neurons. Applying this theory, we illustrate the encoding of motion direction using neural covariance and demonstrate high-fidelity direction recovery by spiking neural networks. Networks trained under this theory also show enhanced performance in classifying natural images, achieving higher accuracy and faster inference speed. Our results challenge the traditional view of neural covariance as a secondary factor in neural coding, highlighting its potential influence on brain function.

Semi-simplicial and semi-cubical sets are commonly defined as presheaves over respectively, the semi-simplex or semi-cube category. Homotopy Type Theory then popularized an alternative definition, where the set of n-simplices or n-cubes are instead regrouped into the families of the fibers over their faces, leading to a characterization we call indexed. Moreover, it is known that semi-simplicial and semi-cubical sets are related to iterated Reynolds parametricity, respectively in its unary and binary variants. We exploit this correspondence to develop an original uniform indexed definition of both augmented semi-simplicial and semi-cubical sets, and fully formalize it in Coq.
