Cross-Fitted Residual Utility for Primary-Preserving Cognitive Decision Correction in Automatic Modulation Classification

Linzhuo Han, Zongyong Cui, Houbiao Li

Automatic modulation classification research has largely emphasized representation accuracy, but a cognitive receiver must also decide when heterogeneous evidence justifies overrid…

Visualizing and forecasting subnational life-table death counts: Gap forecasting methods

Han Lin Shang, Andrea Nigri

Subnational life-table death counts are highly correlated across time and space and differ by gender. While these associations are helpful in improving forecasts through joint mode…

A Beta-GAM Hidden Markov Model for Proportion Time Series

Andrea Nigri, Han Lin Shang, Marco Bonetti

We propose a hidden Markov model for univariate proportion time series taking values in (0,1), where regime switching captures latent structural changes and the emission distributi…

Conformal prediction for high-dimensional functional time series: Applications to subnational mortality

Han Lin Shang

In statistics, forecast uncertainty is often quantified using a specified statistical model, though such approaches may be vulnerable to model misspecification, selection bias, and…

Interpretable models for forecasting high-dimensional functional time series

Han Lin Shang, Cristian F. Jiménez-Varón

We study the modeling and forecasting of high-dimensional functional time series, which can be temporally dependent and cross-sectionally correlated. Central to our implementation…

A Dirichlet-Multinomial-Poisson framework for the coherent analysis and forecast of cause-specific mortality

Andrea Nigri, Han Lin Shang, Francesco Ungolo

Separate modelling of cause specific mortality rates and their projections can yield inconsistent forecasts when the sum of deaths by cause does not match the total observed in a p…

Constructing prediction intervals for the age distribution of deaths

Han Lin Shang, Steven Haberman

We introduce a model-agnostic procedure to construct prediction intervals for the age distribution of deaths. The age distribution of deaths is an example of constrained data, whic…

Nonstationary functional time series forecasting

Han Lin Shang, Yang Yang

We propose a nonstationary functional time series forecasting method with an application to age-specific mortality rates observed over the years. The method begins by taking the fi…

Robust function-on-function interaction regression

Ufuk Beyaztas, Han Lin Shang, Abhijit Mandal

A function-on-function regression model with quadratic and interaction effects of the covariates provides a more flexible model. Despite several attempts to estimate the model's pa…

Forecasting density-valued functional panel data

Cristian F. Jiménez-Varón, Ying Sun, Han Lin Shang

We introduce a statistical method for modeling and forecasting functional panel data represented by multiple densities. Density functions are nonnegative and have a constrained int…

Function-on-function linear quantile regression

Ufuk Beyaztas, Han Lin Shang

In this study, we propose a function-on-function linear quantile regression model that allows for more than one functional predictor to establish a more flexible and robust approac…

Retiree mortality forecasting: A partial age-range or a full age-range model?

Han Lin Shang, Steven Haberman

An essential input of annuity pricing is the future retiree mortality. From observed age-specific mortality data, modeling and forecasting can be taken place in two routes. On the…

Bootstrap Prediction Bands for Functional Time Series

Efstathios Paparoditis, Han Lin Shang

A bootstrap procedure for constructing prediction bands for a stationary functional time series is proposed. The procedure exploits a general vector autoregressive representation o…
