Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this thesis, we are interested in estimating the amount of sparsity in sparse normal mixture models. The estimation problem in hand emerges naturally in the context of variable selection in high-dimensional settings. Handling this problem, we have modified the wellknown procedure of The analytical findings obtained in the thesis are supported via simulations. The simulation study testifies that the new procedure not only displays a better convergence rate but also requires smaller sample size in order to work as designed. Theorem 7 of Chapter 3 that establishes the upper bound on the risk of the newly proposed estimator is the main result of the thesis. This result

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
