Adaptive Ridge-Regularized Hotelling Change-Point Tests for Functional Data

Ping Zhao, Long Feng

We propose a unified ridge-regularized Hotelling framework for detecting and locating mean changes in functional time series. A growing basis expansion converts the functional obse…

Cauchy Aggregation of Ridge-Regularized Hotelling Tests for High-Dimensional Change-Point Detection

Ping Zhao, Le Zhou, Long Feng

Ridge-regularized Hotelling-type (RHT) change-point tests depend on a ridge parameter , but the power-optimal value is determined by the unknown covariance structure and the un…

Rank-Based Tests for Mutual Independence of High-Dimensional Random Vectors via Norm

Ping Zhao, Hongfei Wang, Long Feng

We consider the problem of testing mutual independence among the components of a high-dimensional random vector. Building on the rank-based max-sum framework, we introduce fixed fi…

Sparse -spatial-median clustering for high-dimensional data

Ping Zhao, Dan Zhuang, Long Feng

We propose a robust clustering framework for high-dimensional data with heavy tails and a large fraction of irrelevant variables. The method replaces the mean updates of Lloyd's $K…

Robust Spatial-Sign-Based Testing of High-Dimensional Alpha in Conditional Factor Models

Ping Zhao, Hongfei Wang

This paper develops a new framework for alpha testing in high-dimensional factor pricing models with time-varying coefficients. To detect sparse alternatives, we propose a spatial-…

High dimensional alpha test for linear factor pricing model with -norm

Ping Zhao, Huifang Ma, Long Feng

We consider testing zero pricing errors in high-dimensional linear factor pricing models. Existing methods are mainly based on either an statistic, which is effective under d…
