Recently, He and Owen (2016) proposed the use of Hilberts space filling curve (HSFC) in numerical integration as a way of reducing the dimension from $d>1$ to $d=1$. This paper studies the asymptotic normality of the HSFC-based estimate when using scrambled van der Corput sequence as input. We show that the estimate has an asymptotic normal distribution for functions in $C^1([0,1]^d)$, excluding the trivial case of constant functions. The asymptotic normality also holds for discontinuous functions under mild conditions. It was previously known only that scrambled $(0,m,d)$-net quadratures enjoy the asymptotic normality for smooth enough functions, whose mixed partial gradients satisfy a Holder condition. As a by-product, we find lower bounds for the variance of the HSFC-based estimate. Particularly, for nontrivial functions in $C^1([0,1]^d)$, the low bound is of order $n^{-1-2/d}$, which matches the rate of the upper bound established in He and Owen (2016).

The asymptotic normality for a large family of eigenvalue statistics of a general sample covariance matrix is derived under the ultra-high dimensional setting, that is, when the dimension to sample size ratio $p/n to infty$. Based on this CLT result,
we first adapt the covariance matrix test problem to the new ultra-high dimensional context. Then as a second application, we develop a new test for the separable covariance structure of a matrix-valued white noise. Simulation experiments are conducted for the investigation of finite-sample properties of the general asymptotic normality of eigenvalue statistics, as well as the second test for separable covariance structure of matrix-valued white noise.
Nested sampling is a simulation method for approximating marginal likelihoods proposed by Skilling (2006). We establish that nested sampling has an approximation error that vanishes at the standard Monte Carlo rate and that this error is asymptotical
ly Gaussian. We show that the asymptotic variance of the nested sampling approximation typically grows linearly with the dimension of the parameter. We discuss the applicability and efficiency of nested sampling in realistic problems, and we compare it with two current methods for computing marginal likelihood. We propose an extension that avoids resorting to Markov chain Monte Carlo to obtain the simulated points.
A stationary Poisson line tessellation is considered whose directional distribution is concentrated on two different atoms with some positive weights. The shape of the typical cell of such a tessellation is studied when its area or its perimeter tend
s to zero. In contrast to known results where the area or the perimeter tends to infinity, it is shown that the asymptotic shape of cells having small area is degenerate. Again in contrast to the case of large cells, the asymptotic shape of cells with small perimeter is not uniquely determined. The results are accompanied by a large scale simulation study.
Among Monte Carlo techniques, the importance sampling requires fine tuning of a proposal distribution, which is now fluently resolved through iterative schemes. The Adaptive Multiple Importance Sampling (AMIS) of Cornuet et al. (2012) provides a sign
ificant improvement in stability and effective sample size due to the introduction of a recycling procedure. However, the consistency of the AMIS estimator remains largely open. In this work we prove the convergence of the AMIS, at a cost of a slight modification in the learning process. Contrary to Douc et al. (2007a), results are obtained here in the asymptotic regime where the number of iterations is going to infinity while the number of drawings per iteration is a fixed, but growing sequence of integers. Hence some of the results shed new light on adaptive population Monte Carlo algorithms in that last regime.
In this paper, we address the accuracy of the results for the overdetermined full rank linear least squares problem. We recall theoretical results obtained in Arioli, Baboulin and Gratton, SIMAX 29(2):413--433, 2007, on conditioning of the least squa
res solution and the components of the solution when the matrix perturbations are measured in Frobenius or spectral norms. Then we define computable estimates for these condition numbers and we interpret them in terms of statistical quantities. In particular, we show that, in the classical linear statistical model, the ratio of the variance of one component of the solution by the variance of the right-hand side is exactly the condition number of this solution component when perturbations on the right-hand side are considered. We also provide fragment codes using LAPACK routines to compute the variance-covariance matrix and the least squares conditioning and we give the corresponding computational cost. Finally we present a small historical numerical example that was used by Laplace in Theorie Analytique des Probabilites, 1820, for computing the mass of Jupiter and experiments from the space industry with real physical data.
