... increases. Performance worsens considerably in one case from 20 to 24 bolts; the cluster has 20 cores, and so managing 20 or 24 bolts means 2 or more bolts running on some cores and a computation overhead ...and ... See full document

... If the parametric assumptions are not correct, then the MLE could be biased. Therefore, in this section, we propose a nonparametric approach based on empirical likelihood (Owen, 2001). Under the exclusion restriction ... See full document

... One drawback of the constructed confidence intervals mentioned above is that they require a prior knowledge of the sparsity k. Such knowledge of sparsity is usually unavailable in applications. A natural question is: ... See full document

... Due to the reason of random sampling of the data set, it is natural to ask ques- tions, like, do East and Ticino have different health inequalities in fact? Do Cen- tral and Zurich have the same health inequality ... See full document

... If we know the distribution of W , our analyses from Section 2 can be, in principle, extended to construct inference procedures for regression models where W is either bounded or has a strongly log-concave ... See full document

... Because of the form of the model and the independent assumption on the links, it appears that maximum likelihood estimation developed for logistic regression is all that is needed for inference. A major challenge ... See full document
