Simultaneous Inference for High Dimensional Mean Vectors

Abstract

Let X1,,XnRpX_1, \ldots, X_n\in\mathbb{R}^p be i.i.d. random vectors. We aim to perform simultaneous inference for the mean vector E(Xi)\mathbb{E} (X_i) with finite polynomial moments and an ultra high dimension. Our approach is based on the truncated sample mean vector. A Gaussian approximation result is derived for the latter under the very mild finite polynomial ((2+θ)(2+\theta)-th) moment condition and the dimension pp can be allowed to grow exponentially with the sample size nn. Based on this result, we propose an innovative resampling method to construct simultaneous confidence intervals for mean vectors.
