In this article, by using composite asymmetric least squares (CALS) and empirical likelihood, we propose a two-step procedure to estimate the conditional value at risk (VaR) and conditional expected shortfall (ES) for the GARCH series. First, we perform asymmetric least square regressions at several significance levels to model the volatility structure and separate it from the innovation process in the GARCH model. Note that expectile can serve as a bond to make up the gap from VaR estimation to ES estimation because there exists a bijective mapping from expectiles to specific quantile, and ES can be induced by expectile through a simple formula. Then, we introduce the empirical likelihood method to determine the relation above; this method is data-driven and distribution-free. Theoretical studies guarantee the asymptotic properties, such as consistency and the asymptotic normal distribution of the estimator obtained by our proposed method. A Monte Carlo experiment and an empirical application are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The results indicate that our proposed estimation method is competitive with some alternative existing tail-related risk estimation methods.

In model selection, several types of cross-validation are commonly used and many variants have been introduced. While consistency of some of these methods has been proven, their rate of convergence to the oracle is generally still unknown. Until now, an asymptotic analysis of crossvalidation able to answer this question has been lacking. Existing results focus on the pointwise estimation of the risk of a single estimator, whereas analysing model selection requires understanding how the CV risk varies with the model. In this article, we investigate the asymptotics of the CV risk in the neighbourhood of the optimal model, for trigonometric series estimators in density estimation. Asymptotically, simple validation and incomplete V --fold CV behave like the sum of a convex function fn and a symmetrized Brownian changed in time W gn/V. We argue that this is the right asymptotic framework for studying model selection.
We study the problem of exact support recovery based on noisy observations and present Refined Least Squares (RLS). Given a set of noisy measurement $$ myvec{y} = myvec{X}myvec{theta}^* + myvec{omega},$$ and $myvec{X} in mathbb{R}^{N times D}$ which is a (known) Gaussian matrix and $myvec{omega} in mathbb{R}^N$ is an (unknown) Gaussian noise vector, our goal is to recover the support of the (unknown) sparse vector $myvec{theta}^* in left{-1,0,1right}^D$. To recover the support of the $myvec{theta}^*$ we use an average of multiple least squares solutions, each computed based on a subset of the full set of equations. The support is estimated by identifying the most significant coefficients of the average least squares solution. We demonstrate that in a wide variety of settings our method outperforms state-of-the-art support recovery algorithms.

We study the asymptotic properties of the SCAD-penalized least squares estimator in sparse, high-dimensional, linear regression models when the number of covariates may increase with the sample size. We are particularly interested in the use of this estimator for simultaneous variable selection and estimation. We show that under appropriate conditions, the SCAD-penalized least squares estimator is consistent for variable selection and that the estimators of nonzero coefficients have the same asymptotic distribution as they would have if the zero coefficients were known in advance. Simulation studies indicate that this estimator performs well in terms of variable selection and estimation.
The plurigaussian model is particularly suited to describe categorical regionalized variables. Starting from a simple principle, the thresh-olding of one or several Gaussian random fields (GRFs) to obtain categories, the plurigaussian model is well a dapted for a wide range ofsituations. By acting on the form of the thresholding rule and/or the threshold values (which can vary along space) and the variograms ofthe underlying GRFs, one can generate many spatial configurations for the categorical variables. One difficulty is to choose variogrammodel for the underlying GRFs. Indeed, these latter are hidden by the truncation and we only observe the simple and cross-variogramsof the category indicators. In this paper, we propose a semiparametric method based on the pairwise likelihood to estimate the empiricalvariogram of the GRFs. It provides an exploratory tool in order to choose a suitable model for each GRF and later to estimate its param-eters. We illustrate the efficiency of the method with a Monte-Carlo simulation study .The method presented in this paper is implemented in the R packageRGeostats.
In a regression setting with response vector $mathbf{y} in mathbb{R}^n$ and given regressor vectors $mathbf{x}_1,ldots,mathbf{x}_p in mathbb{R}^n$, a typical question is to what extent $mathbf{y}$ is related to these regressor vectors, specifically, how well can $mathbf{y}$ be approximated by a linear combination of them. Classical methods for this question are based on statistical models for the conditional distribution of $mathbf{y}$, given the regressor vectors $mathbf{x}_j$. Davies and Duembgen (2020) proposed a model-free approach in which all observation vectors $mathbf{y}$ and $mathbf{x}_j$ are viewed as fixed, and the quality of the least squares fit of $mathbf{y}$ is quantified by comparing it with the least squares fit resulting from $p$ independent white noise regressor vectors. The purpose of the present note is to explain in a general context why the model-based and model-free approach yield the same p-values, although the interpretation of the latter is different under the two paradigms.
