In this paper, we survey some recent results on statistical inference (parametric and nonparametric statistical estimation, hypotheses testing) about the spectrum of stationary models with tapered data, as well as, a question concerning robustness of inferences, carried out on a linear stationary process contaminated by a small trend. We also discuss some question concerning tapered Toeplitz matrices and operators, central limit theorems for tapered Toeplitz type quadratic functionals, and tapered Fejer-type kernels and singular integrals. These are the main tools for obtaining the corresponding results, and also are of interest in themselves. The processes considered will be discrete-time and continuous-time Gaussian, linear or Levy-driven linear processes with memory.

In this paper we develop an online statistical inference approach for high-dimensional generalized linear models with streaming data for real-time estimation and inference. We propose an online debiased lasso (ODL) method to accommodate the special structure of streaming data. ODL differs from offline debiased lasso in two important aspects. First, in computing the estimate at the current stage, it only uses summary statistics of the historical data. Second, in addition to debiasing an online lasso estimator, ODL corrects an approximation error term arising from nonlinear online updating with streaming data. We show that the proposed online debiased estimators for the GLMs are consistent and asymptotically normal. This result provides a theoretical basis for carrying out real-time interim statistical inference with streaming data. Extensive numerical experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed ODL method. These experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm and support the theoretical results. A streaming dataset from the National Automotive Sampling System-Crashworthiness Data System is analyzed to illustrate the application of the proposed method.
This paper considers distributed statistical inference for general symmetric statistics %that encompasses the U-statistics and the M-estimators in the context of massive data where the data can be stored at multiple platforms in different locations. In order to facilitate effective computation and to avoid expensive communication among different platforms, we formulate distributed statistics which can be conducted over smaller data blocks. The statistical properties of the distributed statistics are investigated in terms of the mean square error of estimation and asymptotic distributions with respect to the number of data blocks. In addition, we propose two distributed bootstrap algorithms which are computationally effective and are able to capture the underlying distribution of the distributed statistics. Numerical simulation and real data applications of the proposed approaches are provided to demonstrate the empirical performance.
We propose statistical inferential procedures for panel data models with interactive fixed effects in a kernel ridge regression framework.Compared with traditional sieve methods, our method is automatic in the sense that it does not require the choice of basis functions and truncation parameters.Model complexity is controlled by a continuous regularization parameter which can be automatically selected by generalized cross validation. Based on empirical processes theory and functional analysis tools, we derive joint asymptotic distributions for the estimators in the heterogeneous setting. These joint asymptotic results are then used to construct confidence intervals for the regression means and prediction intervals for the future observations, both being the first provably valid intervals in literature. Marginal asymptotic normality of the functional estimators in homogeneous setting is also obtained. Simulation and real data analysis demonstrate the advantages of our method.
In this paper we consider the linear regression model $Y =S X+varepsilon $ with functional regressors and responses. We develop new inference tools to quantify deviations of the true slope $S$ from a hypothesized operator $S_0$ with respect to the Hilbert--Schmidt norm $| S- S_0|^2$, as well as the prediction error $mathbb{E} | S X - S_0 X |^2$. Our analysis is applicable to functional time series and based on asymptotically pivotal statistics. This makes it particularly user friendly, because it avoids the choice of tuning parameters inherent in long-run variance estimation or bootstrap of dependent data. We also discuss two sample problems as well as change point detection. Finite sample properties are investigated by means of a simulation study. Mathematically our approach is based on a sequential version of the popular spectral cut-off estimator $hat S_N$ for $S$. It is well-known that the $L^2$-minimax rates in the functional regression model, both in estimation and prediction, are substantially slower than $1/sqrt{N}$ (where $N$ denotes the sample size) and that standard estimators for $S$ do not converge weakly to non-degenerate limits. However, we demonstrate that simple plug-in estimators - such as $| hat S_N - S_0 |^2$ for $| S - S_0 |^2$ - are $sqrt{N}$-consistent and its sequenti
In this paper we discuss the estimation of a nonparametric component $f_1$ of a nonparametric additive model $Y=f_1(X_1) + ...+ f_q(X_q) + epsilon$. We allow the number $q$ of additive components to grow to infinity and we make sparsity assumptions about the number of nonzero additive components. We compare this estimation problem with that of estimating $f_1$ in the oracle model $Z= f_1(X_1) + epsilon$, for which the additive components $f_2,dots,f_q$ are known. We construct a two-step presmoothing-and-resmoothing estimator of $f_1$ and state finite-sample bounds for the difference between our estimator and some smoothing estimators $hat f_1^{text{(oracle)}}$ in the oracle model. In an asymptotic setting these bounds can be used to show asymptotic equivalence of our estimator and the oracle estimators; the paper thus shows that, asymptotically, under strong enough sparsity conditions, knowledge of $f_2,dots,f_q$ has no effect on estimation accuracy. Our first step is to estimate $f_1$ with an undersmoothed estimator based on near-orthogonal projections with a group Lasso bias correction. We then construct pseudo responses $hat Y$ by evaluating a debiased modification of our undersmoothed estimator of $f_1$ at the design points. In the second step the smoothing method of the oracle estimator $hat f_1^{text{(oracle)}}$ is applied to a nonparametric regression problem with responses $hat Y$ and covariates $X_1$. Our mathematical exposition centers primarily on establishing properties of the presmoothing estimator. We present simulation results demonstrating close-to-oracle performance of our estimator in practical applications.
