Let[Sigma]be an unknown covariance matrix. Perturbation (in)equalities are derived for various scale-invariant functionals of[Sigma]such as correlations (including partial, multiple and canonical correlations) or angles between eigenspaces. These results show that a particular confidence set...

We consider the problem of simultaneous variable selection and estimation in additive partially linear Cox’s proportional hazards models with high-dimensional or ultra-high-dimensional covariates in the linear part. Under the sparse model assumption, we apply the smoothly clipped absolute...

Our goal is to predict a scalar value or a group membership from the discretized observation of curves with sharp local features that might vary both vertically and horizontally. To this aim, we propose to combine the use of the nonparametric functional regression estimator developed by Ferraty...

In this study, a more general single-index regression model was presented to characterize the relationship between a dichotomous response and covariates of interest. With M-phase (M≥2) case-control data supplemented by information on a response and certain covariates, we propose a pseudo...
