This work studies the large sample properties of the posterior-based inference in the curved exponential family under increasing dimension. The curved structure arises from the imposition of various restrictions on the model, such as moment restrictions, and plays a fundamental role in...

This work proposes new inference methods for the estimation of a regression coefficient of interest in quantile regression models. We consider high-dimensional models where the number of regressors potentially exceeds the sample size but a subset of them suffice to construct a reasonable...

In this work we consider series estimators for the conditional mean in light of three new ingredients: (i) sharp LLNs for matrices derived from the non-commutative Khinchin inequalities, (ii) bounds on the Lebesgue factor that controls the ratio between the L∞ and L2-norms, and (iii)...

We develop uniformly valid confidence regions for a regression coefficient in a high-dimensional sparse LAD (least absolute deviation or median) regression model. The setting is one where the number of regressors p could be large in comparison to the sample size n, but only s « n of them are...

We consider estimation of policy relevant treatment effects in a data-rich environment where there may be many more control variables available than there are observations. In addition to allowing many control variables, the setting we consider allows heterogeneous treatment effects, endeogenous...

We propose a self-tuning √ Lasso method that simultaneiously resolves three important practical problems in high-dimensional regression analysis, namely it handles the unknown scale, heteroscedasticity, and (drastic) non-Gaussianity of the noise. In addition, our analysis allows for badly...

We propose robust methods for inference on the effect of a treatment variable on a scalar outcome in the presence of very many controls. Our setting is a partially linear model with possibly non-Gaussian and heteroscedastic disturbances where the number of controls may be much larger than the...

In the first part of the paper, we consider estimation and inference on policy relevant treatment effects, such as local average and local quantile treatment effects, in a data-rich environment where there may be many more control variables available than there are observations. In addition to...

We develop uniformly valid conï¬dence regions for regression coefficients in a high-dimensional sparse least absolute deviation/median regression model. The setting is one where the number of regressors p could be large in comparison to the sample size n, but only s ≪ n of them are...

This paper considers inference in logistic regression models with high dimensional data. We propose new methods for estimating and constructing confidence regions for a regression parameter of primary interest ?0 a parameter in front of the regressor of interest, such as the treatment variable...
