E-Valuating Classifier Two-Sample Tests

We introduce a powerful deep classifier two-sample test for high-dimensional data based on E-values, called E-C2ST. Our test combines ideas from existing work on split likelihood ratio tests and predictive independence tests. The resulting E-values are suitable for anytime-valid sequential two-sample tests. This feature allows for more effective use of data in constructing test statistics. Through simulations and real data applications, we empirically demonstrate that E-C2ST achieves enhanced statistical power by partitioning datasets into multiple batches, beyond the conventional two-split (training and testing) approach of standard two-sample classifier tests. This strategy increases the power of the test, while keeping the type I error well below the desired significance level.

Multi-View Independent Component Analysis with Shared and Individual Sources

Teodora Pandeva
Patrick Forré

Independent component analysis (ICA) is a blind source separation method for linear disentanglement of independent latent sources from observed data. We investigate the special setting of noisy linear ICA, referred to as ShIndICA, where the observations are split among different views, each receiving a mixture of shared and individual sources. We prove that the corresponding linear structure is identifiable and the sources distribution can be recovered. To computationally estimate the sources, we optimize a constrained form of the joint log-likelihood of the observed data among all views. Furthermore, we propose a model selection procedure for recovering the number of shared sources. Finally, we empirically demonstrate the advantages of our model over baselines. We apply ShIndICA in a challenging real-life task, using three transcriptome datasets provided by three different labs (three different views). The recovered sources were used for a downstream graph inference task, facilitating the discovery of a plausible representation of the data’s underlying graph structure.
