Paper review
Correlations and Prediction Performance of the LASSO Estimator
We review classical prediction bounds for the LASSO estimator and hgihglighted how their performance depends on the correlation structure of the design matrix.
Paper review
Flow-Matching Generative Models and Conditional Models
We investigate the use of flow matching for Bayesian posterior estimation, following recent developments by Wildberger et al. [2023] in Flow Matching Posterior Estimation (FMPE)
