径向分布的测度集中与统计建模的结果

Concentration of Measure for Radial Distributions and Consequences for Statistical Modeling

Ery Arias-Castro, Xiao Pu

摘要:

受高维统计问题的启发,如分类和聚类的混合建模,我们考虑了径向密度随维数增加的行为。我们建立了一种形式的浓度的措施,甚至依分布收敛,在额外的假设。这将众所周知的正态分布的行为(其集中在半径为维度平方根的球体周围)扩展到其他径向密度。我们得出了一些可能的后果,在高维统计建模,包括高斯混合物的可能的普适性属性。

英文摘要:

Motivated by problems in high-dimensional statistics such as mixture modeling for classification and clustering, we consider the behavior of radial densities as the dimension increases. We establish a form of concentration of measure, and even a convergence in distribution, under additional assumptions. This extends the well-known behavior of the normal distribution (its concentration around the sphere of radius square-root of the dimension) to other radial densities. We draw some possible consequences for statistical modeling in high-dimensions, including a possible universality property of Gaussian mixtures.
