Estimating quantile treatments without strict overlap

Marco Avella-Medina, Richard Davis, Gennady Samorodnitsky

We consider the problem of estimating quantile treatment effects without assuming strict overlap, i.e., we do not assume that the propensity score is bounded away from zero. More s…

Kernel PCA for multivariate extremes

Marco Avella-Medina, Richard A. Davis, Gennady Samorodnitsky

We propose kernel PCA as a method for analyzing the dependence structure of multivariate extremes and demonstrate that it can be a powerful tool for clustering and dimension reduct…

Differentially private inference via noisy optimization

Marco Avella-Medina, Casey Bradshaw, Po-Ling Loh

We propose a general optimization-based framework for computing differentially private M-estimators and a new method for constructing differentially private confidence regions. Fir…

Propose, Test, Release: Differentially private estimation with high probability

Victor-Emmanuel Brunel, Marco Avella-Medina

We derive concentration inequalities for differentially private median and mean estimators building on the "Propose, Test, Release" (PTR) mechanism introduced by Dwork and Lei (200…

Privacy-preserving parametric inference: a case for robust statistics

Marco Avella-Medina

Differential privacy is a cryptographically-motivated approach to privacy that has become a very active field of research over the last decade in theoretical computer science and m…

Differentially private sub-Gaussian location estimators

Marco Avella-Medina, Victor-Emmanuel Brunel

We tackle the problem of estimating a location parameter with differential privacy guarantees and sub-Gaussian deviations. Recent work in statistics has focused on the study of est…
