Functional worst risk minimization
Philip Kennerberg, Ernst C. Wit
The aim of this paper is to extend worst risk minimization, also called worst average loss minimization, to the functional realm. This means finding a functional regression represe…
Functional structural equation models with out-of-sample guarantees
Philip Kennerberg, Ernst C. Wit
Statistical learning methods typically assume that the training and test data originate from the same distribution, enabling effective risk minimization. However, real-world applic…
Worst-risk minimization in generalized structural equation models
Philip Kennerberg, Ernst C. Wit
We consider rather general structural equation models (SEMs) between a target and its covariates in several shifted environments. Given shifts we consider the set…
Constructive and consistent estimation of quadratic minimax
Philip Kennerberg, Ernst C. Wit
We consider square integrable random variables and random (row) vectors of length , such that is square integrable for …
Optimal worst-risk minimization in structural equation models with random coefficients
Philip Kennerberg, Ernst Wit
The insight that causal parameters are particularly suitable for out-of-sample prediction has sparked a lot development of causal-like predictors. However, the connection with stri…
