We consider the semi-parametric estimation of a scale parameter of a one-dimensional Gaussian process with known smoothness. We suggest an estimator based on quadratic variations and on the moment method. We provide asymptotic approximations of the mean and variance of this estimator, together with asymptotic normality results, for a large class of Gaussian processes. We allow for general mean functions and study the aggregation of several estimators based on various variation sequences. In extensive simulation studies, we show that the asymptotic results accurately depict thefinite-sample situations already for small to moderate sample sizes. We also compare various variation sequences and highlight the efficiency of the aggregation procedure.

We consider a model where the failure hazard function, conditional on a covariate $Z$ is given by $R(t,theta^0|Z)=eta_{gamma^0}(t)f_{beta^0}(Z)$, with $theta^0=(beta^0,gamma^0)^topin mathbb{R}^{m+p}$. The baseline hazard function $eta_{gamma^0}$ and relative risk $f_{beta^0}$ belong both to parametric families. The covariate $Z$ is measured through the error model $U=Z+epsilon$ where $epsilon$ is independent from $Z$, with known density $f_epsilon$. We observe a $n$-sample $(X_i, D_i, U_i)$, $i=1,...,n$, where $X_i$ is the minimum between the failure time and the censoring time, and $D_i$ is the censoring indicator. We aim at estimating $theta^0$ in presence of the unknown density $g$. Our estimation procedure based on least squares criterion provide two estimators. The first one minimizes an estimation of the least squares criterion where $g$ is estimated by density deconvolution. Its rate depends on the smoothnesses of $f_epsilon$ and $f_beta(z)$ as a function of $z$,. We derive sufficient conditions that ensure the $sqrt{n}$-consistency. The second estimator is constructed under conditions ensuring that the least squares criterion can be directly estimated with the parametric rate. These estimators, deeply studied through examples are in particular $sqrt{n}$-consistent and asymptotically Gaussian in the Cox model and in the excess risk model, whatever is $f_epsilon$.

This paper deals with the maximum likelihood estimator for the mean-reverting parameter of a first order autoregressive models with exogenous variables, which are stationary Gaussian noises (Colored noise). Using the method of the Laplace transform, both the asymptotic properties and the asymptotic design problem of the maximum likelihood estimator are investigated. The numerical simulation results confirm the theoretical analysis and show that the proposed maximum likelihood estimator performs well in finite sample.
In this paper we are interested in the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) of the vector parameter of an autoregressive process of order $p$ with regular stationary Gaussian noise. We exhibit the large sample asymptotical properties of the MLE under v ery mild conditions. Simulations are done for fractional Gaussian noise (fGn), autoregressive noise (AR(1)) and moving average noise (MA(1)).
In this paper, we prove almost surely consistency of a Survival Analysis model, which puts a Gaussian process, mapped to the unit interval, as a prior on the so-called hazard function. We assume our data is given by survival lifetimes $T$ belonging t o $mathbb{R}^{+}$, and covariates on $[0,1]^d$, where $d$ is an arbitrary dimension. We define an appropriate metric for survival functions and prove posterior consistency with respect to this metric. Our proof is based on an extension of the theorem of Schwartz (1965), which gives general conditions for proving almost surely consistency in the setting of non i.i.d random variables. Due to the nature of our data, several results for Gaussian processes on $mathbb{R}^+$ are proved which may be of independent interest.
We consider a sparse linear regression model with unknown symmetric error under the high-dimensional setting. The true error distribution is assumed to belong to the locally $beta$-H{o}lder class with an exponentially decreasing tail, which does not need to be sub-Gaussian. We obtain posterior convergence rates of the regression coefficient and the error density, which are nearly optimal and adaptive to the unknown sparsity level. Furthermore, we derive the semi-parametric Bernstein-von Mises (BvM) theorem to characterize asymptotic shape of the marginal posterior for regression coefficients. Under the sub-Gaussianity assumption on the true score function, strong model selection consistency for regression coefficients are also obtained, which eventually asserts the frequentists validity of credible sets.
