Learning conditional independence structure for high-dimensional uncorrelated vector processes
We formulate and analyze a graphical model selection method for inferring the conditional independence graph of a high-dimensional nonstationary Gaussian random process (time series) from a finite-length observation. The observed process samples are assumed uncorrelated over time and having a time-varying marginal distribution. The selection method is based on testing conditional variances obtained for small subsets of process components. This allows to cope with the high-dimensional regime, where the sample size can be (drastically) smaller than the process dimension. We characterize the required sample size such that the proposed selection method is successful with high probability.

Conditional Dependence via U-Statistics Pruning
The problem of measuring conditional dependence between two random phenomena arises when a third one (a confounder) has a potential influence on the amount of information between them. A typical issue in this challenging…
High-dimensional Functional Graphical Model Structure Learning via Neighborhood Selection Approach
Undirected graphical models are widely used to model the conditional independence structure of vector-valued data. However, in many modern applications, for example those involving EEG and fMRI data, observations are mor…

Neighborhood regression has been a successful approach in graphical and structural equation modeling, with applications to learning undirected and directed graphical models. We extend these ideas by defining and studying…

We propose a new conditional dependence measure and a statistical test for conditional independence. The measure is based on the difference between analytic kernel embeddings of two well-suited distributions evaluated at…
