Define the piecewise-linear function $\psi(t):=\max(t,0)$ for all $t \in \mathbb R$. Let $d,n,k \to \infty$ at the same rate (i.e $n \asymp k \asymp d$). Let $y_1,\ldots,y_n \in \{-1,1\}$ uniformly ...

Given a finite set of points $(x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2), \ldots, (x_n, y_n)$ in the plane, Linear Regression tells us how to find the straight line "$y=a+bx$" best approximating the given points, in the ...

It is well known that $E[X|X+Y]$ is Gaussian if both $X$ and $Y$ are, and the result can be derived using standard density arguments. However, how can one prove it by only resulting to optimization ...

Motivation Then the usual stochastic filtering problem says that: $$ \operatorname{argmin}_{Z \in L^2(\mathscr{G}_t)}\,\mathbb{E}[(Y_t-Z_t)^2], $$ where $\mathscr{G}_t$ is the $\sigma$-algebra ...
