We propose a methodology for filtering, smoothing and assessing parameter and filtering uncertainty in score-driven models. Our technique is based on a general representation of the Kalman filter and smoother recursions for linear Gaussian models in terms of the score of the conditional log-likelihood. We prove that, when data is generated by a nonlinear non-Gaussian state-space model, the proposed methodology results from a local expansion of the true filtering density. A formal characterization of the approximation error is provided. As shown in extensive Monte Carlo analyses, our methodology performs very similarly to exact simulation-based methods, while remaining computationally extremely simple. We illustrate empirically the advantages in employing score-driven models as approximate filters rather than purely predictive processes.

Applications such as the analysis of microbiome data have led to renewed interest in statistical methods for compositional data, i.e., multivariate data in the form of probability vectors that contain relative proportions. In particular, there is con
siderable interest in modeling interactions among such relative proportions. To this end we propose a class of exponential family models that accommodate general patterns of pairwise interaction while being supported on the probability simplex. Special cases include the family of Dirichlet distributions as well as Aitchisons additive logistic normal distributions. Generally, the distributions we consider have a density that features a difficult to compute normalizing constant. To circumvent this issue, we design effective estimation methods based on generaliz
It has become commonplace to use complex computer models to predict outcomes in regions where data does not exist. Typically these models need to be calibrated and validated using some experimental data, which often consists of multiple correlated ou
tcomes. In addition, some of the model parameters may be categorical in nature, such as a pointer variable to alternate models (or submodels) for some of the physics of the system. Here we present a general approach for calibration in such situations where an emulator of the computationally demanding models and a discrepancy term from the model to reality are represented within a Bayesian Smoothing Spline (BSS) ANOVA framework. The BSS-ANOVA framework has several advantages over the traditional Gaussian Process, including ease of handling categorical inputs and correlated outputs, and improved computational efficiency. Finally this framework is then applied to the problem that motivated its design; a calibration of a computational fluid dynamics model of a bubbling fluidized which is used as an absorber in a CO2 capture system.
This paper is concerned with model averaging estimation for partially linear functional score models. These models predict a scalar response using both parametric effect of scalar predictors and non-parametric effect of a functional predictor. Within
this context, we develop a Mallows-type criterion for choosing weights. The resulting model averaging estimator is proved to be asymptotically optimal under certain regularity conditions in terms of achieving the smallest possible squared error loss. Simulation studies demonstrate its superiority or comparability to information criterion score-based model selection and averaging estimators. The proposed procedure is also applied to two real data sets for illustration. That the components of nonparametric part are unobservable leads to a more complicated situation than ordinary partially linear models (PLM) and a different theoretical derivation from those of PLM.
We consider the problem of filtering an unseen Markov chain from noisy observations, in the presence of uncertainty regarding the parameters of the processes involved. Using the theory of nonlinear expectations, we describe the uncertainty in terms o
f a penalty function, which can be propagated forward in time in the place of the filter.
A common challenge in estimating parameters of probability density functions is the intractability of the normalizing constant. While in such cases maximum likelihood estimation may be implemented using numerical integration, the approach becomes com
putationally intensive. In contrast, the score matching method of Hyvarinen (2005) avoids direct calculation of the normalizing constant and yields closed-form estimates for exponential families of continuous distributions over $mathbb{R}^m$. Hyvarinen (2007) extended the approach to distributions supported on the non-negative orthant $mathbb{R}_+^m$. In this paper, we give a generalized form of score matching for non-negative data that improves estimation efficiency. We also generalize the regularized score matching method of Lin et al. (2016) for non-negative Gaussian graphical models, with improved theoretical guarantees.
