Statistical implications of group invariance of distributions - Peter Orbanz, Professor, University College London
Statistical implications of group invariance of distributions - Peter Orbanz, Professor, University College London
Abstract: Consider a large random structure -- a random graph, a stochastic process on the line, a random field on the grid -- and a function that depends only on a small part of the structure. Now use a family of transformations to ‘mo...
