Asymptotic Normality of Log Likelihood Ratio and Fundamental Limit of the Weak Detection for Spiked Wigner Matrices
We consider the problem of detecting the presence of a signal in a rank-one spiked Wigner model. For general non-Gaussian noise, assuming that the signal is drawn from the Rademacher prior, we prove that the log likelihood ratio (LR) of the spiked model against the null model converges to a Gaussian when the signal-to-noise ratio is below a certain threshold. The threshold is optimal in the sense that the reliable detection is possible by a transformed principal component analysis (PCA) above it. From the mean and the variance of the limiting Gaussian for the log-LR, we compute the limit of the sum of the Type-I error and the Type-II error of the likelihood ratio test. We also prove similar results for a rank-one spiked IID model where the noise is asymmetric but the signal is symmetric.

Asyptotic Normality for Maximum Likelihood Estimation and Operational Risk
Operational risk models commonly employ maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) to fit loss data to heavy-tailed distributions. Yet several desirable properties of MLE (e.g. asymptotic normality) are generally valid only for…

It is well known that, under standard regularity conditions, the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) satisfies a central limit theorem and converges in distribution to a Gaussian random variable as the sample size grows. …

This paper investigates the asymptotic distribution of the maximum-likelihood estimate (MLE) in multinomial logistic models in the high-dimensional regime where dimension and sample size are of the same order. While clas…
