STSW04 - Future challenges in statistical scalability

When faced with a dataset and a problem of interest, should we propose a statistical model and use that to inform an appropriate algorithm, or dream up a potential algorithm and then seek to justify it? The former is the more traditional statistical approach, but the latter appears to be becoming more popular. I will discuss a class of algorithms that belong in the second category, namely those that involve data perturbation (e.g. subsampling, random projections, artificial noise, knockoffs,...). As examples, I will consider Complementary Pairs Stability Selection for variable selection and sparse PCA via random projections. This will involve joint work with Rajen Shah, Milana Gataric and Tengyao Wang.
