arXiv:2505. 05168v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Under mild conditions, a least-squares local linear Fr\'echet curve predictor is derived for a response and a regressor evaluated in a separable Hilbert space.
The monograph explores the relationships between Gaussian processes and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS), two widely used approaches that rely on positive definite kernels. It examines how these frameworks connect and are equivalent across key topics such as regression, interpolation, numerical integration, distributional discrepancies, statistical dependence, and Gaussian process sample path properties. By establishing a unifying perspective based on the equivalence between the Gaussian Hilbert space and the RKHS, the work aims to bridge methods developed independently by the machine learning, statistics, and numerical analysis communities.
We develop a comprehensive theory for regularized M-estimation in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Under mild conditions on the loss we establish existence and measurability of the estimator, covering a wide range of convex and non-convex losses, including bounded robust losses.
arXiv:2602. 23006v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Simulating a Gaussian process requires sampling from a high-dimensional Gaussian distribution, which scales cubically with the number of sample locations.
The paper introduces an online framework for functional principal component analysis (FPCA) tailored to multidimensional functional data streams. It models functional principal components with tensor product splines, enforcing smoothness and orthonormality via a penalized approach on a Stiefel manifold. The authors present efficient Riemannian stochastic gradient descent and AdaGrad algorithms, along with a dynamic smoothing parameter tuning strategy based on rolling block validation, and provide asymptotic normality results and confidence intervals for the estimators.
arXiv:2608.28446v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For finite-dimensional linear inverse problems where the variables are Gaussian, it is well-known that the minimum-mean-square error estimator takes...
