On sparse estimation for semiparametric linear transformation models
: Semiparametric linear transformation models have received much attention due to its high flexibility in modeling survival data. A useful estimating equation procedure was recent...

Statistical analysis of sketch estimators
Sketching techniques can provide approximate answers to aggregate queries either for data-streaming or distributed computation. Small space summaries that have linearity propertie...

Estimating the probability of a rare event over a finite time horizon
We study an approximation for the zero-variance change of measure to estimate the probability of a rare event in a continuous-time Markov chain. The rare event occurs when the cha...

Concavity of Mutual Information Rate for Input-Restricted Finite-State Memoryless Channels at High SNR
We consider a finite-state memoryless channel with i.i.d. channel state and the input Markov process supported on a mixing finite-type constraint. We discuss the asymptotic behavio...

Measuring empirical computational complexity
The standard language for describing the asymptotic behavior of algorithms is theoretical computational complexity. We propose a method for describing the asymptotic behavior of p...
