Formulated through discussions with van Zwet himself, this volume is a collection of papers that truly reflects the range of the subject's research, and which covers themes ranging from asymptotic theory to probability and second-order approximations.

With this collections volume, some of the important works of Willem van Zwet are moved to the front layers of modern statistics. The selection was based on discussions with Willem, and aims at a representative sample. The result is a collection of papers that the new generations of statisticians should not be denied. They are here to stay, to enjoy and to form the basis for further research.

The papers are grouped into six themes: fundamental statistics, asymptotic theory, second-order approximations, resampling, applications, and probability. This volume serves as basic reference...

Taking the Lasso method as its starting point, this book describes the main ingredients needed to study general loss functions and sparsity-inducing regularizers. It also provides a semi-parametric approach to establishing confidence intervals and tests. Sparsity-inducing methods have proven to be very useful in the analysis of high-dimensional data. Examples include the Lasso and group Lasso methods, and the least squares method with other norm-penalties, such as the nuclear norm. The illustrations provided include generalized linear models, density estimation, matrix completion and sparse...

The theory of empirical processes provides valuable tools for the development of asymptotic theory in (nonparametric) statistical models, and makes it possible to give a unified treatment of various models. This book reveals the relation between the asymptotic behavior of M-estimators and the complexity of parameter space, using entropy as a measure of complexity, presenting tools and methods to analyze nonparametric, and in some cases, semiparametric methods. Graduate students and professionals in statistics, as well as those interested in applications, e.g. to econometrics, medical...
