Inference post region selection

Dominique Bontemps, François Bachoc, Pierre Neuvial

Post-selection inference consists in providing statistical guarantees, based on a data set, that are robust to a prior model selection step on the same data set. In this paper, we…

A Tight Regret Analysis of Non-Parametric Repeated Contextual Brokerage

François Bachoc, Tommaso Cesari, Roberto Colomboni

We study a contextual version of the repeated brokerage problem. In each interaction, two traders with private valuations for an item seek to buy or sell based on the learner's-a b…

Fair Online Bilateral Trade

François Bachoc, Nicolò Cesa-Bianchi, Tommaso Cesari +1

In online bilateral trade, a platform posts prices to incoming pairs of buyers and sellers that have private valuations for a certain good. If the price is lower than the buyers' v…

Asymptotic analysis for covariance parameter estimation of Gaussian processes with functional inputs

Lucas Reding, Andrés F. López-Lopera, François Bachoc

We consider covariance parameter estimation for Gaussian processes with functional inputs. From an increasing-domain asymptotics perspective, we prove the asymptotic consistency an…

Large-Sample Properties of Non-Stationary Source Separation for Gaussian Signals

François Bachoc, Christoph Muehlmann, Klaus Nordhausen +1

Non-stationary source separation is a well-established branch of blind source separation with many different methods. However, for none of these methods large-sample results are av…

Sequential construction and dimension reduction of Gaussian processes under constraints

François Bachoc, Andrés F. López Lopera, Olivier Roustant

Accounting for inequality constraints, such as boundedness, monotonicity or convexity, is challenging when modeling costly-to-evaluate black box functions. In this regard, finite-d…

Asymptotically Equivalent Prediction in Multivariate Geostatistics

François Bachoc, Emilio Porcu, Moreno Bevilacqua +2

Cokriging is the common method of spatial interpolation (best linear unbiased prediction) in multivariate geostatistics. While best linear prediction has been well understood in un…
