Lower Bounds for Estimation

Exact maximum coverage probabilities of confidence intervals with increasing bounds for Poisson distribution mean

 ‎A Poisson distribution is well used as a standard model for analyzing count data‎. ‎So the Poisson distribution parameter estimation is widely applied in practice‎. ‎Providing accurate confidence intervals for the discrete distribution parameters is very difficult‎. ‎So far‎, ‎many asymptotic confidence intervals for the mean of Poisson distribution is provided‎. ‎It is known that the coverag...

Some Lower Bounds for Estrada Index

Strong exponent bounds for the local Rankin-Selberg convolution

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field‎. ‎Let $sigma$ and $tau$ be finite-dimensional representations of the Weil-Deligne group of $F$‎. ‎We give strong upper and lower bounds for the Artin and Swan exponents of $sigmaotimestau$ in terms of those of $sigma$ and $tau$‎. ‎We give a different lower bound in terms of $sigmaotimeschecksigma$ and $tauotimeschecktau$‎. ‎Using the Langlands...

Localized Upper and Lower Bounds for Some Estimation Problems

We derive upper and lower bounds for some statistical estimation problems. The upper bounds are established for the Gibbs algorithm. The lower bounds, applicable for all statistical estimators, match the obtained upper bounds for various problems. Moreover, our framework can be regarded as a natural generalization of the standard minimax framework, in that we allow the performance of the estima...

Information-theoretic lower bounds for distributed statistical estimation with communication constraints

We establish lower bounds on minimax risks for distributed statistical estimation under a communication budget. Such lower bounds reveal the minimum amount of communication required by any procedure to achieve the centralized minimax-optimal rates for statistical estimation. We study two classes of protocols: one in which machines send messages independently, and a second allowing for interacti...
