Robust Estimation under the Wasserstein Distance
Sloan Nietert, Rachel Cummings, Ziv Goldfeld
We study the problem of robust distribution estimation under the Wasserstein distance, a popular discrepancy measure between probability distributions rooted in optimal transport (…
Private Sequential Hypothesis Testing for Statisticians: Privacy, Error Rates, and Sample Size
Wanrong Zhang, Yajun Mei, Rachel Cummings
The sequential hypothesis testing problem is a class of statistical analyses where the sample size is not fixed in advance. Instead, the decision-process takes in new observations…
Outlier-Robust Optimal Transport: Duality, Structure, and Statistical Analysis
Sloan Nietert, Rachel Cummings, Ziv Goldfeld
The Wasserstein distance, rooted in optimal transport (OT) theory, is a popular discrepancy measure between probability distributions with various applications to statistics and ma…
PAPRIKA: Private Online False Discovery Rate Control
Wanrong Zhang, Gautam Kamath, Rachel Cummings
In hypothesis testing, a false discovery occurs when a hypothesis is incorrectly rejected due to noise in the sample. When adaptively testing multiple hypotheses, the probability o…
