报告摘要】:High-dimensional penalized rank regression is a powerful tool for modeling high-dimensional data due to its robustness and estimation efficiency. However, the non-smoothness of the rank loss brings great challenges to the computation. To solve this critical issue, high-dimensional convoluted rank regression has been recently proposed, introducing penalized convoluted rank regression estimators.  However, these developed estimators cannot be directly used to make inference. In this paper, we investigate the statistical inference problem of high-dimensional convoluted rank regression. The use of U-statistic in convoluted rank loss function brings challenges for the investigation.  We begin by establishing estimation error bounds of penalized convoluted rank regression estimators under weaker conditions on the predictors. Building on this, we further introduce a debiased estimator and  provide its Bahadur representation. Subsequently,   a high-dimensional Gaussian approximation for the maximum deviation of the debiased estimator is derived, which allows us to construct  simultaneous confidence intervals.  For implementation, a  novel bootstrap procedure is proposed and its theoretical validity is also established. Finally, simulation and real data analysis are conducted to illustrate the merits of our proposed methods.
