Robust and non asymptotic estimation of probability weighted moments with application to extreme value analysis

Anna Ben-Hamou, Philippe Naveau, Maud Thomas

In extreme value theory and other related risk analysis fields, probability weighted moments (PWM) have been frequently used to estimate the parameters of classical extreme value d…

Inference in balanced community modulated recursive trees

Anna Ben-Hamou, Vasiliki Velona

We introduce a random recursive tree model with two communities, called balanced community modulated random recursive tree, or BCMRT in short. In this setting, pairs of nodes of di…

On deviation probabilities in non-parametric regression with heavy-tailed noise

Anna Ben-Hamou, Arnaud Guyader

This paper is devoted to the problem of determining the concentration bounds that are achievable in non-parametric regression. We consider the setting where features are supported…

Estimating graph parameters with random walks

Anna Ben-Hamou, Roberto I. Oliveira, Yuval Peres

An algorithm observes the trajectories of random walks over an unknown graph , starting from the same vertex , as well as the degrees along the trajectories. For all finite c…

Concentration inequalities in the infinite urn scheme for occupancy counts and the missing mass, with applications

Anna Ben-Hamou, Stéphane Boucheron, Mesrob I. Ohannessian

An infinite urn scheme is defined by a probability mass function over positive integers. A random allocation consists of a sample of independent drawings accor…
