Previously, the diagonals-parameter symmetry model based on $f$-divergence (denoted by DPS[$f$]) was reported to be equivalent to the diagonals-parameter symmetry model regardless of the function $f$, but the proof was omitted. Here, we derive the DPS[$f$] model and the proof of the relation between the two models. We can obtain various interpretations of the diagonals-parameter symmetry model from the result. Additionally, the necessary and sufficient conditions for symmetry and property between test statistics for goodness of fit are discussed.

Neural networks are very effective when trained on large datasets for a large number of iterations. However, when they are trained on non-stationary streams of data and in an online fashion, their performance is reduced (1) by the online setup, which limits the availability of data, (2) due to catastrophic forgetting because of the non-stationary nature of the data. Furthermore, several recent works (Caccia et al., 2022; Lange et al., 2023) arXiv:2205.1345(2) showed that replay methods used in continual learning suffer from the stability gap, encountered when evaluating the model continually (rather than only on task boundaries). In this article, we study the effect of model ensembling as a way to improve performance and stability in online continual learning. We notice that naively ensembling models coming from a variety of training tasks increases the performance in online continual learning considerably. Starting from this observation, and drawing inspirations from semi-supervised learning ensembling methods, we use a lightweight temporal ensemble that computes the exponential moving average of the weights (EMA) at test time, and show that it can drastically increase the performance and stability when used in combination with several methods from the literature.

Several recent studies have reported negative results when using heteroskedastic neural regression models to model real-world data. In particular, for overparameterized models, the mean and variance networks are powerful enough to either fit every single data point (while shrinking the predicted variances to zero), or to learn a constant prediction with an output variance exactly matching every predicted residual (i.e., explaining the targets as pure noise). This paper studies these difficulties from the perspective of statistical physics. We show that the observed instabilities are not specific to any neural network architecture but are already present in a field theory of an overparameterized conditional Gaussian likelihood model. Under light assumptions, we derive a nonparametric free energy that can be solved numerically. The resulting solutions show excellent qualitative agreement with empirical model fits on real-world data and, in particular, prove the existence of phase transitions, i.e., abrupt, qualitative differences in the behaviors of the regressors upon varying the regularization strengths on the two networks. Our work thus provides a theoretical explanation for the necessity to carefully regularize heteroskedastic regression models. Moreover, the insights from our theory suggest a scheme for optimizing this regularization which is quadratically more efficient than the naive approach.

The last decade has seen many attempts to generalise the definition of modes, or MAP estimators, of a probability distribution $\mu$ on a space $X$ to the case that $\mu$ has no continuous Lebesgue density, and in particular to infinite-dimensional Banach and Hilbert spaces $X$. This paper examines the properties of and connections among these definitions. We construct a systematic taxonomy -- or `periodic table' -- of modes that includes the established notions as well as large hitherto-unexplored classes. We establish implications between these definitions and provide counterexamples to distinguish them. We also distinguish those definitions that are merely `grammatically correct' from those that are `meaningful' in the sense of satisfying certain `common-sense' axioms for a mode, among them the correct handling of discrete measures and those with continuous Lebesgue densities. However, despite there being 17 such `meaningful' definitions of mode, we show that none of them satisfy the `merging modes property', under which the modes of $\mu|_{A}$, $\mu|_{B}$ and $\mu|_{A \cup B}$ enjoy a straightforward relationship for open, positive-mass $A,B \subseteq X$.

We consider a a collection of categorical random variables. Of special interest is the causal effect on an outcome variable following an intervention on another variable. Conditionally on a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG), we assume that the joint law of the random variables can be factorized according to the DAG, where each term is a categorical distribution for the node-variable given a configuration of its parents. The graph is equipped with a causal interpretation through the notion of interventional distribution and the allied "do-calculus". From a modeling perspective, the likelihood is decomposed into a product over nodes and parents of DAG-parameters, on which a suitably specified collection of Dirichlet priors is assigned. The overall joint distribution on the ensemble of DAG-parameters is then constructed using global and local independence. We account for DAG-model uncertainty and propose a reversible jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm which targets the joint posterior over DAGs and DAG-parameters; from the output we are able to recover a full posterior distribution of any causal effect coefficient of interest, possibly summarized by a Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) point estimate. We validate our method through extensive simulation studies, wherein comparisons with alternative state-of-the-art procedures reveal an outperformance in terms of estimation accuracy. Finally, we analyze a dataset relative to a study on depression and anxiety in undergraduate students.

It is well known that the Euler method for approximating the solutions of a random ordinary differential equation $\mathrm{d}X_t/\mathrm{d}t = f(t, X_t, Y_t)$ driven by a stochastic process $\{Y_t\}_t$ with $\theta$-H\"older sample paths is estimated to be of strong order $\theta$ with respect to the time step, provided $f=f(t, x, y)$ is sufficiently regular and with suitable bounds. Here, it is proved that, in many typical cases, further conditions on the noise can be exploited so that the strong convergence is actually of order 1, regardless of the H\"older regularity of the sample paths. This applies for instance to additive or multiplicative It\^o process noises (such as Wiener, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck, and geometric Brownian motion processes); to point-process noises (such as Poisson point processes and Hawkes self-exciting processes, which even have jump-type discontinuities); and to transport-type processes with sample paths of bounded variation. The result is based on a novel approach, estimating the global error as an iterated integral over both large and small mesh scales, and switching the order of integration to move the critical regularity to the large scale. The work is complemented with numerical simulations illustrating the strong order 1 convergence in those cases, and with an example with fractional Brownian motion noise with Hurst parameter $0 < H < 1/2$ for which the order of convergence is $H + 1/2$, hence lower than the attained order 1 in the examples above, but still higher than the order $H$ of convergence expected from previous works.

Theoretical studies on transfer learning or domain adaptation have so far focused on situations with a known hypothesis class or model; however in practice, some amount of model selection is usually involved, often appearing under the umbrella term of hyperparameter-tuning: for example, one may think of the problem of tuning for the right neural network architecture towards a target task, while leveraging data from a related source task. Now, in addition to the usual tradeoffs on approximation vs estimation errors involved in model selection, this problem brings in a new complexity term, namely, the transfer distance between source and target distributions, which is known to vary with the choice of hypothesis class. We present a first study of this problem, focusing on classification; in particular, the analysis reveals some remarkable phenomena: adaptive rates, i.e., those achievable with no distributional information, can be arbitrarily slower than oracle rates, i.e., when given knowledge on distances.

This paper studies inference in two-stage randomized experiments under covariate-adaptive randomization. In the initial stage of this experimental design, clusters (e.g., households, schools, or graph partitions) are stratified and randomly assigned to control or treatment groups based on cluster-level covariates. Subsequently, an independent second-stage design is carried out, wherein units within each treated cluster are further stratified and randomly assigned to either control or treatment groups, based on individual-level covariates. Under the homogeneous partial interference assumption, I establish conditions under which the proposed difference-in-"average of averages" estimators are consistent and asymptotically normal for the corresponding average primary and spillover effects and develop consistent estimators of their asymptotic variances. Combining these results establishes the asymptotic validity of tests based on these estimators. My findings suggest that ignoring covariate information in the design stage can result in efficiency loss, and commonly used inference methods that ignore or improperly use covariate information can lead to either conservative or invalid inference. Finally, I apply these results to studying optimal use of covariate information under covariate-adaptive randomization in large samples, and demonstrate that a specific generalized matched-pair design achieves minimum asymptotic variance for each proposed estimator. The practical relevance of the theoretical results is illustrated through a simulation study and an empirical application.

With some regularity conditions maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) always produce asymptotically optimal (in the sense of consistency, efficiency, sufficiency, and unbiasedness) estimators. But in general, the MLEs lead to non-robust statistical inference, for example, pricing models and risk measures. Actuarial claim severity is continuous, right-skewed, and frequently heavy-tailed. The data sets that such models are usually fitted to contain outliers that are difficult to identify and separate from genuine data. Moreover, due to commonly used actuarial "loss control strategies" in financial and insurance industries, the random variables we observe and wish to model are affected by truncation (due to deductibles), censoring (due to policy limits), scaling (due to coinsurance proportions) and other transformations. To alleviate the lack of robustness of MLE-based inference in risk modeling, here in this paper, we propose and develop a new method of estimation - method of truncated moments (MTuM) and generalize it for different scenarios of loss control mechanism. Various asymptotic properties of those estimates are established by using central limit theory. New connections between different estimators are found. A comparative study of newly-designed methods with the corresponding MLEs is performed. Detail investigation has been done for a single parameter Pareto loss model including a simulation study.

One core assumption typically adopted for valid causal inference is that of no interference between experimental units, i.e., the outcome of an experimental unit is unaffected by the treatments assigned to other experimental units. This assumption can be violated in real-life experiments, which significantly complicates the task of causal inference as one must disentangle direct treatment effects from ``spillover'' effects. Current methodologies are lacking, as they cannot handle arbitrary, unknown interference structures to permit inference on causal estimands. We present a general framework to address the limitations of existing approaches. Our framework is based on the new concept of the ``degree of interference'' (DoI). The DoI is a unit-level latent variable that captures the latent structure of interference. We also develop a data augmentation algorithm that adopts a blocked Gibbs sampler and Bayesian nonparametric methodology to perform inferences on the estimands under our framework. We illustrate the DoI concept and properties of our Bayesian methodology via extensive simulation studies and an analysis of a randomized experiment investigating the impact of a cash transfer program for which interference is a critical concern. Ultimately, our framework enables us to infer causal effects without strong structural assumptions on interference.

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have recently achieved great success in many visual recognition tasks. However, existing deep neural network models are computationally expensive and memory intensive, hindering their deployment in devices with low memory resources or in applications with strict latency requirements. Therefore, a natural thought is to perform model compression and acceleration in deep networks without significantly decreasing the model performance. During the past few years, tremendous progress has been made in this area. In this paper, we survey the recent advanced techniques for compacting and accelerating CNNs model developed. These techniques are roughly categorized into four schemes: parameter pruning and sharing, low-rank factorization, transferred/compact convolutional filters, and knowledge distillation. Methods of parameter pruning and sharing will be described at the beginning, after that the other techniques will be introduced. For each scheme, we provide insightful analysis regarding the performance, related applications, advantages, and drawbacks etc. Then we will go through a few very recent additional successful methods, for example, dynamic capacity networks and stochastic depths networks. After that, we survey the evaluation matrix, the main datasets used for evaluating the model performance and recent benchmarking efforts. Finally, we conclude this paper, discuss remaining challenges and possible directions on this topic.
