Likelihood estimation of sparse topic distributions in topic models and its applications to Wasserstein document distance calculations

no code implementations12 Jul 2021 Xin Bing, Florentina Bunea, Seth Strimas-Mackey, Marten Wegkamp

When $A$ is unknown, we estimate $T$ by optimizing the likelihood function corresponding to a plug in, generic, estimator $\hat{A}$ of $A$.

Prediction in latent factor regression: Adaptive PCR and beyond

no code implementations20 Jul 2020 Xin Bing, Florentina Bunea, Seth Strimas-Mackey, Marten Wegkamp

Our primary contribution is in establishing finite sample risk bounds for prediction with the ubiquitous Principal Component Regression (PCR) method, under the factor regression model, with the number of principal components adaptively selected from the data -- a form of theoretical guarantee that is surprisingly lacking from the PCR literature.

Interpolating Predictors in High-Dimensional Factor Regression

no code implementations6 Feb 2020 Florentina Bunea, Seth Strimas-Mackey, Marten Wegkamp

If the effective rank of the covariance matrix $\Sigma$ of the $p$ regression features is much larger than the sample size $n$, we show that the min-norm interpolating predictor is not desirable, as its risk approaches the risk of trivially predicting the response by 0.
