A Power and Prediction Analysis for Knockoffs with Lasso Statistics

Asaf Weinstein, Rina Barber, Emmanuel Candes

Knockoffs is a new framework for controlling the false discovery rate (FDR) in multiple hypothesis testing problems involving complex statistical models. While there has been great…

Discretized conformal prediction for efficient distribution-free inference

Wenyu Chen, Kelli-Jean Chun, Rina Foygel Barber

In regression problems where there is no known true underlying model, conformal prediction methods enable prediction intervals to be constructed without any assumptions on the dist…

Alternating minimization and alternating descent over nonconvex sets

Wooseok Ha, Rina Foygel Barber

We analyze the performance of alternating minimization for loss functions optimized over two variables, where each variable may be restricted to lie in some potentially nonconvex c…

Contraction and uniform convergence of isotonic regression

Fan Yang, Rina Foygel Barber

We consider the problem of isotonic regression, where the underlying signal is assumed to satisfy a monotonicity constraint, that is, lies in the cone $\{ x\in\mathbb{R}^n…

Gradient descent with nonconvex constraints: local concavity determines convergence

Rina Foygel Barber, Wooseok Ha

Many problems in high-dimensional statistics and optimization involve minimization over nonconvex constraints-for instance, a rank constraint for a matrix estimation problem-but li…

A unified treatment of multiple testing with prior knowledge using the p-filter

Aaditya Ramdas, Rina Foygel Barber, Martin J. Wainwright +1

There is a significant literature on methods for incorporating knowledge into multiple testing procedures so as to improve their power and precision. Some common forms of prior kno…
