In social network analysis, logistic regression models have been widely used to establish the relationship between the response variable and covariates. However, such models often require the network relationships to be mutually independent, after controlling for a set of covariates. To assess the validity of this assumption, we propose test statistics, under the logistic regression setting, for three important social network drivers. They are, respectively, reciprocity, centrality, and transitivity. The asymptotic distributions of those test statistics are obtained. Extensive simulation studies are also presented to demonstrate their finite sample performance and usefulness. 相似文献

Some properties of conditionally independent random variables are studied. Conditional versions of generalized Borel-Cantelli
lemma, generalized Kolmogorov’s inequality and generalized Hájek-Rényi inequality are proved. As applications, a conditional
version of the strong law of large numbers for conditionally independent random variables and a conditional version of the
Kolmogorov’s strong law of large numbers for conditionally independent random variables with identical conditional distributions
are obtained. The notions of conditional strong mixing and conditional association for a sequence of random variables are
introduced. Some covariance inequalities and a central limit theorem for such sequences are mentioned. 相似文献

Some statistical models imply that two random vectors are marginally independent as well as being conditionally independent with respect to another random vector. When the joint distribution of the vectors is normal, canonical correlation analysis may lead to relevant simplifications of the dependence structure. A similar application can be found in elliptical models, where linear independence does not imply statistical independence. Implications for Bayes analysis of the general linear model are discussed. 相似文献

We combine infinite-dimensional integration by parts procedures with a recursive relation on moments (reminiscent of a formula by Barbour (1986)), and deduce explicit expressions for cumulants of functionals of a general Gaussian field. These findings yield a compact formula for cumulants on a fixed Wiener chaos, virtually replacing the usual “graph/diagram computations” adopted in most of the probabilistic literature. 相似文献

Summary. Let (W, H, μ) be an abstract Wiener space and let Tw = w + u (w), where u is an H-valued random variable, be a measurable transformation on W. A Sard type lemma and a degree theorem for this setup are presented and applied to derive existence of solutions to elliptic
stochastic partial differential equations.

The infinite dimensional Green measure g is shown to be a product measure and this provides sufficient conditions for the existence and the differentiability of potentials. Moreover, it is shown how such conditions can be used to prove that if f is Lip and if we set u = Gf, then first D2u is Lip too and second u satisfies Δu = ?2f for a wide class of functions f with arbitrary support. 相似文献

We define a covariance-type operator on Wiener space: for F and G two random variables in the Gross–Sobolev space D1,2 of random variables with a square-integrable Malliavin derivative, we let ΓF,G?〈DF,−DL−1G〉, where D is the Malliavin derivative operator and L−1 is the pseudo-inverse of the generator of the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck semigroup. We use Γ to extend the notion of covariance and canonical metric for vectors and random fields on Wiener space, and prove corresponding non-Gaussian comparison inequalities on Wiener space, which extend the Sudakov–Fernique result on comparison of expected suprema of Gaussian fields, and the Slepian inequality for functionals of Gaussian vectors. These results are proved using a so-called smart-path method on Wiener space, and are illustrated via various examples. We also illustrate the use of the same method by proving a Sherrington–Kirkpatrick universality result for spin systems in correlated and non-stationary non-Gaussian random media. 相似文献

The goal of this paper is to study optimal transportation problems and gradient flows of probability measures on the Wiener space, based on and extending fundamental results of Feyel–Üstünel. Carrying out the program of Ambrosio–Gigli–Savaré, we present a complete characterization of the derivative processes for certain class of absolutely continuous curves. We prove existence of the gradient flow curves for the relative entropy w.r.t. the Wiener measure and identify these gradient flow curves with solutions of the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck evolution equation. 相似文献

We construct a Hausdorff measure of finite co-dimension on the Wiener space. We then extend the Federer co-area Formula to this Wiener space for functions with the sole condition that they belong to the first Sobolev space. An explicit formula for the density of the images of the Wiener measure under such functions follows naturally from this. As a corollary, this yields a new and easy proof of the Krée-Watanabe theorem concerning the regularity of the images of the Wiener measure. 相似文献

Extensions of the Nourdin-Peccati analysis to Rn-valued random variables are obtained by taking conditional expectation on the Wiener space. Several proof techniques are explored, from infinitesimal geometry, to quasi-sure analysis (including a connection to Stein's lemma), to classical analysis on Wiener space. Partial differential equations for the density of an Rn-valued centered random variable Z=(Z1,…,Zn) are obtained. Of particular importance is the function defined by the conditional expectation given Z of the auxiliary random matrix (−DL−1Zi|DZj), i,j=1,2,…,n, where D and L are respectively the derivative operator and the generator of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on Wiener space. 相似文献

In this paper we show that elementary properties of joint probability density functions naturally induce a universal algebraic
structure suitable for studying probabilistic conditional independence (PCI) relations. We call this algebraic system the
cain. In the cain algebra, PCI relations are represented in equational forms. In particular, we show that the cain satisfies
the axioms of the graphoid of Pearl and Paz (Advances in artificial intelligence. North-Holland, Amsterdam, 1987) and the
separoid of Dawid (Ann. Math. Artif. Intell. 32:335–372, 2001), these axiomatic systems being useful for general probabilistic
reasoning. 相似文献

The domain of definition of the divergence operator δ on an abstract Wiener space (W,H,μ) is extended to include W–valued and – valued “integrands”. The main properties and characterizations of this extension are derived and it is shown that in some
sense the added elements in δ’s extended domain have divergence zero. These results are then applied to the analysis of quasiinvariant flows induced by
W-valued vector fields and, among other results, it turns out that these divergence-free vector fields “are responsible” for
generating measure preserving flows.

Summary Fractional order Sobolev spaces are introduced on an abstract Wiener space and Donsker's delta functions are defined as generalized Wiener functionals belonging to Sobolev spaces with negative differentiability indices. By using these notions, the regularity in the sense of Hölder continuity of a class of conditional expectations is obtained. 相似文献

Consider an L1-continuous functional ? on the vector space of polynomials of Brownian motion at given times, suppose ? commutes with the quadratic variation in a natural sense, and consider a finite set of polynomials of Brownian motion at rational times, , mapping the Wiener space to R.In the spirit of Schmüdgen's solution to the finite-dimensional moment problem, we give sufficient conditions under which ? can be written in the form ∫⋅dμ for some probability measure μ on the Wiener space such that μ-almost surely, all the random variables are nonnegative. 相似文献

The logical and algorithmic properties of stable conditional independence (CI) as an alternative structural representation of conditional independence information are investigated. We utilize recent results concerning a complete axiomatization of stable conditional independence relative to discrete probability measures to derive perfect model properties of stable conditional independence structures. We show that stable CI can be interpreted as a generalization of Markov networks and establish a connection between sets of stable CI statements and propositional formulas in conjunctive normal form. Consequently, we derive that the implication problem for stable CI is coNP-complete. Finally, we show that Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solvers can be employed to efficiently decide the implication problem and to compute concise, non-redundant representations of stable CI, even for instances involving hundreds of random variables. 相似文献
