Closure space has proven to be a useful tool to restructure lattices and various order structures.This paper aims to provide a novel approach to characterizing some important kinds of continuous domains by means of closure spaces. By introducing an additional map into a given closure space, the notion of F-augmented generalized closure space is presented. It is shown that F-augmented generalized closure spaces generate exactly continuous domains. Moreover, the notion of approximable mapping is identified to represent Scott-continuous functions between continuous domains. These results produce a category equivalent to that of continuous domains with Scottcontinuous functions. At the same time, two subclasses of F-augmented generalized closure spaces are considered which are representations of continuous L-domains and continuous bounded complete domains, respectively.

In this work, we study a random orthogonal projection based least squares estimator for the stable solution of a multivariate nonparametric regression (MNPR) problem. More precisely, given an integer $d\geq 1$ corresponding to the dimension of the MNPR problem, a positive integer $N\geq 1$ and a real parameter $\alpha\geq -\frac{1}{2},$ we show that a fairly large class of $d-$variate regression functions are well and stably approximated by its random projection over the orthonormal set of tensor product $d-$variate Jacobi polynomials with parameters $(\alpha,\alpha).$ The associated uni-variate Jacobi polynomials have degree at most $N$ and their tensor products are orthonormal over $\mathcal U=[0,1]^d,$ with respect to the associated multivariate Jacobi weights. In particular, if we consider $n$ random sampling points $\mathbf X_i$ following the $d-$variate Beta distribution, with parameters $(\alpha+1,\alpha+1),$ then we give a relation involving $n, N, \alpha$ to ensure that the resulting $(N+1)^d\times (N+1)^d$ random projection matrix is well conditioned. Moreover, we provide squared integrated as well as $L^2-$risk errors of this estimator. Precise estimates of these errors are given in the case where the regression function belongs to an isotropic Sobolev space $H^s(I^d),$ with $s> \frac{d}{2}.$ Also, to handle the general and practical case of an unknown distribution of the $\mathbf X_i,$ we use Shepard's scattered interpolation scheme in order to generate fairly precise approximations of the observed data at $n$ i.i.d. sampling points $\mathbf X_i$ following a $d-$variate Beta distribution. Finally, we illustrate the performance of our proposed multivariate nonparametric estimator by some numerical simulations with synthetic as well as real data.

We provide a general framework for designing Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to solve high dimensional robust statistics problems, which aim at estimating unknown parameter of the true distribution given adversarially corrupted samples. Prior work focus on the problem of robust mean and covariance estimation when the true distribution lies in the family of Gaussian distributions or elliptical distributions, and analyze depth or scoring rule based GAN losses for the problem. Our work extend these to robust mean estimation, second moment estimation, and robust linear regression when the true distribution only has bounded Orlicz norms, which includes the broad family of sub-Gaussian, sub-Exponential and bounded moment distributions. We also provide a different set of sufficient conditions for the GAN loss to work: we only require its induced distance function to be a cumulative density function of some light-tailed distribution, which is easily satisfied by neural networks with sigmoid activation. In terms of techniques, our proposed GAN losses can be viewed as a smoothed and generalized Kolmogorov-Smirnov distance, which overcomes the computational intractability of the original Kolmogorov-Smirnov distance used in the prior work.

We review sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) estimators with multivariate response in this paper. A wide range of SDR methods are characterized as inverse regression SDR estimators or forward regression SDR estimators. The inverse regression family include pooled marginal estimators, projective resampling estimators, and distance-based estimators. Ordinary least squares, partial least squares, and semiparametric SDR estimators, on the other hand, are discussed as estimators from the forward regression family.

Spectral clustering algorithms are very popular. Starting from a pairwise similarity matrix, spectral clustering gives a partition of data that approximately minimizes the total similarity scores across clusters. Since there is no need to model how data are distributed within each cluster, such a method enjoys algorithmic simplicity and robustness in clustering non-Gaussian data such as those near manifolds. Nevertheless, several important questions are unaddressed, such as how to estimate the similarity scores and cluster assignment probabilities, as important uncertainty estimates in clustering. In this article, we propose to solve these problems with a discovered generative modeling counterpart. Our clustering model is based on a spanning forest graph that consists of several disjoint spanning trees, with each tree corresponding to a cluster. Taking a Bayesian approach, we assign proper densities on the root and leaf nodes, and we prove that the posterior mode is almost the same as spectral clustering estimates. Further, we show that the associated generative process, named "forest process", is a continuous extension to the classic urn process, hence inheriting many nice properties such as having unbounded support for the number of clusters and being amenable to existing partition probability function; at the same time, we carefully characterize their differences. We demonstrate a novel application in joint clustering of multiple-subject functional magnetic resonance imaging scans of the human brain.

Normalizing Flows (NFs) are universal density estimators based on Neural Networks. However, this universality is limited: the density's support needs to be diffeomorphic to a Euclidean space. In this paper, we propose a novel method to overcome this limitation without sacrificing universality. The proposed method inflates the data manifold by adding noise in the normal space, trains an NF on this inflated manifold, and, finally, deflates the learned density. Our main result provides sufficient conditions on the manifold and the specific choice of noise under which the corresponding estimator is exact. Our method has the same computational complexity as NFs and does not require computing an inverse flow. We also show that, if the embedding dimension is much larger than the manifold dimension, noise in the normal space can be well approximated by Gaussian noise. This allows using our method for approximating arbitrary densities on unknown manifolds provided that the manifold dimension is known.

Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) enables statistical inference in complex models whose likelihoods are difficult to calculate but easy to simulate from. ABC constructs a kernel-type approximation to the posterior distribution through an accept/reject mechanism which compares summary statistics of real and simulated data. To obviate the need for summary statistics, we directly compare empirical distributions with a Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence estimator obtained via classification. In particular, we blend flexible machine learning classifiers within ABC to automate fake/real data comparisons. We consider the traditional accept/reject kernel as well as an exponential weighting scheme which does not require the ABC acceptance threshold. Our theoretical results show that the rate at which our ABC posterior distributions concentrate around the true parameter depends on the estimation error of the classifier. We derive limiting posterior shape results and find that, with a properly scaled exponential kernel, asymptotic normality holds. We demonstrate the usefulness of our approach on simulated examples as well as real data in the context of stock volatility estimation.

We propose a new wavelet-based method for density estimation when the data are size-biased. More specifically, we consider a power of the density of interest, where this power exceeds 1/2. Warped wavelet bases are employed, where warping is attained by some continuous cumulative distribution function. This can be seen as a general framework in which the conventional orthonormal wavelet estimation is the case where warping distribution is the standard uniform c.d.f. We show that both linear and nonlinear wavelet estimators are consistent, with optimal and/or near-optimal rates. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to compare four special settings which are easy to interpret in practice. An application with a real dataset on fatal traffic accidents involving alcohol illustrates the method. We observe that warped bases provide more flexible and superior estimates for both simulated and real data. Moreover, we find that estimating the power of a density (for instance, its square root) further improves the results.

The problem of Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search is fundamental in computer science and has benefited from significant progress in the past couple of decades. However, most work has been devoted to pointsets whereas complex shapes have not been sufficiently treated. Here, we focus on distance functions between discretized curves in Euclidean space: they appear in a wide range of applications, from road segments to time-series in general dimension. For $\ell_p$-products of Euclidean metrics, for any $p$, we design simple and efficient data structures for ANN, based on randomized projections, which are of independent interest. They serve to solve proximity problems under a notion of distance between discretized curves, which generalizes both discrete Fr\'echet and Dynamic Time Warping distances. These are the most popular and practical approaches to comparing such curves. We offer the first data structures and query algorithms for ANN with arbitrarily good approximation factor, at the expense of increasing space usage and preprocessing time over existing methods. Query time complexity is comparable or significantly improved by our algorithms, our algorithm is especially efficient when the length of the curves is bounded.

Many problems on signal processing reduce to nonparametric function estimation. We propose a new methodology, piecewise convex fitting (PCF), and give a two-stage adaptive estimate. In the first stage, the number and location of the change points is estimated using strong smoothing. In the second stage, a constrained smoothing spline fit is performed with the smoothing level chosen to minimize the MSE. The imposed constraint is that a single change point occurs in a region about each empirical change point of the first-stage estimate. This constraint is equivalent to requiring that the third derivative of the second-stage estimate has a single sign in a small neighborhood about each first-stage change point. We sketch how PCF may be applied to signal recovery, instantaneous frequency estimation, surface reconstruction, image segmentation, spectral estimation and multivariate adaptive regression.
