Item An Approach to Canonical Correlation Analysis Based on Rényi’s Pseudodistances(Entropy, 2023) Jaenada Malagón, María; Miranda Menéndez, Pedro; Pardo Llorente, Leandro; Zografos, KonstantinosCanonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) infers a pairwise linear relationship between two groups of random variables, 𝑿 and 𝒀. In this paper, we present a new procedure based on Rényi’s pseudodistances (RP) aiming to detect linear and non-linear relationships between the two groups. RP canonical analysis (RPCCA) finds canonical coefficient vectors, 𝒂 and 𝒃, by maximizing an RP-based measure. This new family includes the Information Canonical Correlation Analysis (ICCA) as a particular case and extends the method for distances inherently robust against outliers. We provide estimating techniques for RPCCA and show the consistency of the proposed estimated canonical vectors. Further, a permutation test for determining the number of significant pairs of canonical variables is described. The robustness properties of the RPCCA are examined theoretically and empirically through a simulation study, concluding that the RPCCA presents a competitive alternative to ICCA with an added advantage in terms of robustness against outliers and data contamination.- Project number: PIMCD204/23-24

Item Robust inference for non-destructive one-shot device testing under step-stress model with exponential lifetimes(2022) Balakrishnan, Narayanaswamy; Castilla González, Elena María; Jaenada Malagón, María; Pardo Llorente, LeandroOne-shot devices analysis involves an extreme case of interval censoring, wherein one can only know whether the failure time is either before or after the test time. Some kind of one-shot devices do not get destroyed when tested, and so can continue within the experiment, providing extra information for inference, if they did not fail before an inspection time. In addition, their reliability can be rapidly estimated via accelerated life tests (ALTs) by running the tests at varying and higher stress levels than working conditions. In particular, step-stress tests allow the experimenter to increase the stress levels at pre-fixed times gradually during the life-testing experiment. The cumulative exposure model is commonly assumed for step-stress models, relating the lifetime distribution of units at one stress level to the lifetime distributions at preceding stress levels. In this paper, we develop robust estimators and Z-type test statistics based on the density power divergence (DPD) for testing linear null hypothesis for non-destructive one-shot devices under the step-stress ALTs with exponential lifetime distribution. We study asymptotic and robustness properties of the estimators and test statistics, yielding point estimation and conffidence intervals for different lifetime characteristic such as reliability, distribution quantiles and mean lifetime of the devices. A simulation study is carried out to assess the performance of the methods of inference developed here and some real-life data sets are analyzed ffinally for illustrative purpose.Item Restricted distance-type Gaussian estimators based on density power divergence and their aplications in hypothesis testing(Mathematics, 2023) Felipe Ortega, Ángel; Jaenada Malagón, María; Miranda Menéndez, Pedro; Pardo Llorente, LeandroIn this paper, we introduce the restricted minimum density power divergence Gaussian estimator (MDPDGE) and study its main asymptotic properties. In addition, we examine it robustness through its influence function analysis. Restricted estimators are required in many practical situations, such as testing composite null hypotheses, and we provide in this case constrained estimators to inherent restrictions of the underlying distribution. Furthermore, we derive robust Rao-type test statistics based on the MDPDGE for testing a simple null hypothesis, and we deduce explicit expressions for some main important distributions. Finally, we empirically evaluate the efficiency and robustness of the method through a simulation studyItem Robust approach for comparing two dependent normal populations through Wald-type tests based on Rényi's pseudodistance estimators(Statistics and Computing, 2022) Castilla González, Elena María; Jaenada Malagón, María; Martín Apaolaza, Nirian; Pardo Llorente, LeandroSince the two seminal papers by Fisher (1915, 1921) were published, the test under a fixed value correlation coefficient null hypothesis for the bivariate normal distribution constitutes an important statistical problem. In the framework of asymptotic robust statistics, it remains being a topic of great interest to be investigated. For this and other tests, focused on paired correlated normal random samples, Rényi's pseudodistance estimators are proposed, their asymptotic distribution is established and an iterative algorithm is provided for their computation. From them the Wald-type test statistics are constructed for different problems of interest and their influence function is theoretically studied. For testing null correlation in different contexts, an extensive simulation study and two real data based examples support the robust properties of our proposal.Item Robust adaptive Lasso in high-dimensional logistic regression with an application to genomic classification of cancer patients(2021) Basu, A.; Ghosh, A.; Jaenada Malagón, María; Pardo Llorente, LeandroPenalized logistic regression is extremely useful for binary classiffication with a large number of covariates (significantly higher than the sample size), having several real life applications, including genomic disease classification. However, the existing methods based on the likelihood based loss function are sensitive to data contamination and other noise and, hence, robust methods are needed for stable and more accurate inference. In this paper, we propose a family of robust estimators for sparse logistic models utilizing the popular density power divergence based loss function and the general adaptively weighted LASSO penalties. We study the local robustness of the proposed estimators through its in uence function and also derive its oracle properties and asymptotic distribution. With extensive empirical illustrations, we clearly demonstrate the significantly improved performance of our proposed estimators over the existing ones with particular gain in robustness. Our proposal is finally applied to analyse four different real datasets for cancer classification, obtaining robust and accurate models, that simultaneously performs gene selection and patient classification.Item Classification of COVID19 Patients Using Robust Logistic Regression(Journal of Statistical Theory and Practice, 2022) Ghosh, Abhik; Jaenada Malagón, María; Pardo Llorente, LeandroCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) has triggered a global pandemic affecting millions of people. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing the COVID-19 disease is hypothesized to gain entry into humans via the airway epithelium, where it initiates a host response. The expression levels of genes at the upper airway that interact with the SARS-CoV-2 could be a telltale sign of virus infection. However, gene expression data have been flagged as suspicious of containing different contamination errors via techniques for extracting such information, and clinical diagnosis may contain labelling errors due to the specificity and sensitivity of diagnostic tests. We propose to fit the regularized logistic regression model as a classifier for COVID-19 diagnosis, which simultaneously identifies genes related to the disease and predicts the COVID-19 cases based on the expression values of the selected genes. We apply a robust estimating methods based on the density power divergence to obtain stable results ignoring the effects of contamination or labelling errors in the data and compare its performance with respect to the classical maximum likelihood estimator with different penalties, including the LASSO and the general adaptive LASSO penalties.- Project number: 343
Item Tutoriales guiados de prácticas en “Estadística: Análisis de Datos e Inferencia” mediante el software libre SAS University Edition(2020) Martín Apaolaza, Nirian; Castilla González, Elena María; Chocano Feito, Pedro José; Jaenada Malagón, María; Pardo Llorente, Leandro Item Estimation and Testing on Independent Not Identically Distributed Observations Based on Rényi’s Pseudodistances(IEEE transactions on information theory, 2022) Castilla González, Elena María; Jaenada Malagón, María; Pardo Llorente, LeandroIn real life we often deal with independent but not identically distributed observations (i.n.i.d.o), for which the most well-known statistical model is the multiple linear regression model (MLRM) with non-random covariates. While the classical methods are based on the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), it is well known its lack of robustness to small deviations from the assumed conditions. In this paper, and based on the Rényi’s pseudodistance (RP), we introduce a new family of estimators in case our information about the unknown parameter is given for i.n.i.d.o.. This family of estimators, let us say minimum RP estimators (as they are obtained by minimizing the RP between the assumed distribution and the empirical distribution of the data), contains the MLE as a particular case and can be applied, among others, to the MLRM with non-random covariates. Based on these estimators, we introduce Wald-type tests for testing simple and composite null hypotheses, as an extension of the classical MLE-based Wald test. Influence functions for the estimators and Wald-type tests are also obtained and analysed. Finally, a simulation study is developed in order to asses the performance of the proposed methods and some real-life data are analysed for illustrative purpose.Item Robust Rao-type tests for non-destructive one-shot device testing under step-stress model with exponential lifetimes(2022) Balakrishnan, Narayanaswamy; Jaenada Malagón, María; Pardo Llorente, LeandroOne-shot devices analysis involves an extreme case of interval censoring, wherein one can only know whether the failure time is before the test time. Some kind of one-shot units do not get destroyed when tested, and then survival units can continue within the test providing extra information for inference. This not-destructiveness is a great advantage when the number of units under test are few. On the other hand, one-shot devices may last for long times under normal operating conditions and so accelerated life tests (ALTs), which increases the stress levels at which units are tested, may be needed. ALTs relate the lifetime distribution of an unit with the stress level at which it is tested via log-linear relationship, so inference results can be easily extrapolated to normal operating conditions. In particular, the step-stress model, which allows the experimenter to increase the stress level at pre-fixed times gradually during the life-testing experiment is specially advantageous for non-destructive one-shot devices. In this paper, we develop robust Rao-type test statistics based on the density power divergence (DPD) for testing linear null hypothesis for non-destructive one-shot devices under the step-stress ALTs with exponential lifetime distributions. We theoretically study their asymptotic and robustness properties, and empirically illustrates such properties through a simulation study.
