• Abstract: The case-control sampling design serves as a pivotal strategy in mitigating the imbalanced structure observed in binary data. We consider the estimation of a non-parametric logistic model with the case-control data supplemented by external summary information. The incorporation of external summary information ensures the identifiability of the model. We propose a two-step estimation procedure. In the first step, the external information is utilized to estimate the marginal case proportion. In the second step, the estimated proportion is used to construct a weighted objective function for parameter training. A deep neural network architecture is employed for functional approximation. We further derive the non-asymptotic error bound of the proposed estimator. Following this the convergence rate is obtained and is shown to reach the optimal speed of the non-parametric regression estimation. Simulation studies are conducted to evaluate the theoretical findings of the proposed method. A real data example is analyzed for illustration.

  We use the inner dimension of deep neural network based Autoencoders as summary statistics. To create an incentive for the encoder to encode all the parameter-related information but not the noise, we give the decoder access to explicit or implicit information that has been used to generate the training data.

  characterisation of the brain grey matter cytoarchitecture with quantitative sensitivity to soma density and volume remains an unsolved challenge in dMRI. We propose a new forward model, specifically a new system of equations, requiring a few relatively sparse b-shells. We then apply modern tools from Bayesian analysis known as likelihood-free inference (LFI) to invert our proposed model.

  Simulation-based inference enables learning the parameters of a model even when its likelihood cannot be computed in practice. One class of methods uses data simulated with different parameters to infer an amortized estimator for the likelihood-to-evidence ratio. We show that this approach can be formulated in terms of mutual information between model parameters and simulated data.

  Inferring the parameters of a model based on experimental observations is central to the scientific method. A particularly challenging setting is when the model is strongly indeterminate, i.e., when distinct sets of parameters yield identical observations. We present a method for cracking such indeterminacy by exploiting additional information conveyed by an auxiliary set of observations sharing global parameters.
