Section Title:
Modern Stat Estimation Theory
Section Info:
For Statistics course registration information: go.illinois.edu/StatisticsRegistration This course offers an introduction to the finite sample analysis of modern statistical estimation methods. Topics would include High Dimensional Linear Regression, Non Parametric Regression, Large Matrix Estimation and Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Shape/Norm Constrained Estimation and Minimax Lower Bounds (Decision Theoretic). The goal is to present various proof techniques for state-of-the-art methods in the above topics. Essential probability topics such as Concentration of Measure and Empirical Process Theory will be discussed concurrently. A handful of open problems are expected to be encountered and stated in the duration of the course.
