Factor Augmented High-Dimensional SGD

Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is a fundamental optimization algorithm widely used in modern machine learning. In this paper, we propose Factor-Augmented SGD (FSGD), a new optimization method that leverages latent factor representations in high-dimensional learning tasks. Unlike standard two-stage dimension reduction approaches that rely on offline representation learning and full data storage, a key novelty of FSGD is that it operates purely on streaming data, making it scalable to large-scale and high-dimensional problems. Furthermore, we establish the first theoretical framework that explicitly incorporates latent factor estimation error into the analysis of SGD, and provide moment convergence in $\ell^s$ norm under decaying step sizes and mini-batch updates. Our results provide a new foundation for employing SGD reliably and scalably in high-dimensional machine learning systems.

High-dimensional Linear Regression for Dependent Data with Applications to Nowcasting

Recent research has focused on $\ell_1$ penalized least squares (Lasso) estimators for high-dimensional linear regressions in which the number of covariates $p$ is considerably larger than the sample size $n$. However, few studies have examined the properties of the estimators when the errors and/or the covariates are serially dependent. In this study, we investigate the theoretical properties of the Lasso estimator for a linear regression with a random design and weak sparsity under serially dependent and/or nonsubGaussian errors and covariates. In contrast to the traditional case, in which the errors are independent and identically distributed and have finite exponential moments, we show that $p$ can be at most a power of $n$ if the errors have only finite polynomial moments. In addition, the rate of convergence becomes slower owing to the serial dependence in the errors and the covariates. We also consider the sign consistency of the model selection using the Lasso estimator when there are serial correlations in the errors or the covariates, or both. Adopting the framework of a functional dependence measure, we describe how the rates of convergence and the selection consistency of the estimators depend on the dependence measures and moment conditions of the errors and the covariates. Simulation results show that a Lasso regression can be significantly more powerful than a mixed-frequency data sampling regression (MIDAS) and a Dantzig selector in the presence of irrelevant variables. We apply the results obtained for the Lasso method to nowcasting with mixed-frequency data, in which serially correlated errors and a large number of covariates are common. The empirical results show that the Lasso procedure outperforms the MIDAS regression and the autoregressive model with exogenous variables in terms of both forecasting and nowcasting.

Rank Determination in Tensor Factor Model

Factor model is an appealing and effective analytic tool for high-dimensional time series, with a wide range of applications in economics, finance and statistics. This paper develops two criteria for the determination of the number of factors for tensor factor models where the signal part of an observed tensor time series assumes a Tucker decomposition with the core tensor as the factor tensor. The task is to determine the dimensions of the core tensor. One of the proposed criteria is similar to information based criteria of model selection, and the other is an extension of the approaches based on the ratios of consecutive eigenvalues often used in factor analysis for panel time series. Theoretically results, including sufficient conditions and convergence rates, are established. The results include the vector factor models as special cases, with an additional convergence rates. Simulation studies provide promising finite sample performance for the two criteria.
