arXiv:2603. 17925v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We consider a variant of sequential testing by betting where, at each time step, the statistician is presented with multiple data sources (arms) and obtains data by choosing one of the arms.
arXiv:2602. 17587v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study one-sided and $\alpha$-correct sequential hypothesis testing for data generated by an ergodic, finite-state Markov chain.
arXiv:2607. 16966v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Estimating entropy from samples is fundamental in information theory and property testing.
arXiv:2602. 21479v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Across many risk-sensitive areas, it is critical to continuously audit machine learning systems as we receive more data to quickly determine if they are performing as designed.
arXiv:2509. 03734v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the hypothesis selection problem, we are given sample and query access to finite set of candidate distributions (hypotheses), $\mathcal{H} = \{H_1, \ldots, H_n\}$, and samples from an unknown distribution $P$, both over a domain $\mathcal{X}$.
arXiv:2608. 02538v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper is concerned with one-bit mean estimation, where each independent sample is represented by a single binary message.
