A Minimum Distance Estimator Approach for Misspecified Ergodic Processes
We propose a minimum distance estimator (MDE) for parameter identification in misspecified models characterized by a sequence of ergodic stochastic processes that converge weakly to the model of interest. The data is generated by the sequence of processes, and we are interested in inferring parameters for the limiting processes. We define a general statistical setting for parameter estimation under such model misspecification and prove the robustness of the MDE. Furthermore, we prove the asympt…

Unsupervised Imaging Inverse Problems with Diffusion Distribution Matching
This work addresses image restoration tasks through the lens of inverse problems using unpaired datasets. In contrast to traditional approaches -- which typically assume full knowledge of the forward model or access to paired degraded and ground-truth images -- the proposed method operates under minimal assumptions and relies only on small, unpaired datasets. This makes it particularly well-suited for real-world scenarios, where the forward model is often unknown or misspecified, and collecting…

Single Index Bandits: Generalized Linear Contextual Bandits with Unknown Reward Functions
Generalized linear bandits have been extensively studied due to their broad applicability in real-world online decision-making problems. However, these methods typically assume that the expected reward function is known to the users, an assumption that is often unrealistic in practice. Misspecification of this link function can lead to the failure of all existing algorithms. In this work, we address this critical limitation by introducing a new problem of generalized linear bandits with unknown…

« Fière d’être brune » : à Los Angeles, le sursaut de solidarité de la jeunesse latino
Des milliers d’enfants de migrants ont manifesté samedi dans le centre-ville de la mégalopole californienne, en brandissant leur identité, pour protester contre les arrestations massives de sans-papiers ordonnées par l’administration Trump.
