Functional linear regression from sparse to dense designs: a pooling-ridge method and minimax optimality

The paper introduces a pooling‑ridge estimation method for functional linear regression that handles data observed at discrete times, ranging from sparse to dense designs. By combining pooling strategies with RKHS‑based techniques, the authors achieve minimax‑optimal prediction risk for both scalar‑on‑function and function‑on‑function models. The study identifies distinct phase transitions in convergence behavior, with up to three transitions for function‑on‑function regression, and validates the approach through simulations and real data examples.

Scalable estimation of VARMA models

arXiv:2608. 06340v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vector autoregressive moving-average (VARMA) models have long been considered impractical beyond moderate dimensions: the likelihood is non-convex, the parametrization is identified only up to equivalence, and every evaluation costs a pass over the entire series.

Scalable estimation of VARMA models

Vector autoregressive moving-average (VARMA) models have long been considered impractical beyond moderate dimensions: the likelihood is non-convex, the parametrization is identified only up to equivalence, and every evaluation costs a pass over the entire series. Yet their moving-average term captures with a few parameters what a pure autoregression matches only with many lags.
