On the limitations of data-based price discrimination

Haitian Xie, Ying Zhu, Denis Shishkin

The classic third degree price discrimination (3PD) model requires the knowledge of the distribution of buyer valuations and the covariate to set the price conditioned on the covar…

Phase transitions in nonparametric regressions

Ying Zhu

When the unknown regression function of a single variable is known to have derivatives up to the th order bounded in absolute values by a common constant everywhere or a.e.…

Classes of ODE solutions: smoothness, covering numbers, implications for noisy function fitting, and the curse of smoothness phenomenon

Ying Zhu, Mozhgan Mirzaei

Many numerical methods for recovering ODE solutions from data rely on approximating the solutions using basis functions or kernel functions under a least square criterion. The accu…

Omitted variable bias of Lasso-based inference methods: A finite sample analysis

Kaspar Wuthrich, Ying Zhu

We study the finite sample behavior of Lasso-based inference methods such as post double Lasso and debiased Lasso. We show that these methods can exhibit substantial omitted variab…

Variation entropy: a continuous local generalization of the TVD property using entropy principles

M. ten Eikelder, I. Akkerman

This paper presents the notion of a variation entropy. This concept is an entropy framework for the gradient of the solution of a conservation law instead of on the solution itself…

High Dimensional Inference in Partially Linear Models

Ying Zhu, Zhuqing Yu, Guang Cheng

We propose two semiparametric versions of the debiased Lasso procedure for the model , where is high dimensional but sparse (exactly or approxi…

Sparse Linear Models and Two-Stage Estimation in High-Dimensional Settings with Possibly Many Endogenous Regressors

Ying Zhu

This paper explores the validity of the two-stage estimation procedure for sparse linear models in high-dimensional settings with possibly many endogenous regressors. In particular…
