This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) provides $450,000 to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania from January 2022 through September 2024. The funding supports research to develop new theoretical foundations for uncertainty quantification in non-convex, low-complexity models used in data-driven applications. Specifically, the awardee will conduct research to construct optimal confidence intervals for unknown continuous parameters using novel non-convex estimation and de-biasing methods. They will also develop efficient algorithms and assessment procedures to analyze unknown discrete variables under non-convex models. Additionally, the funding enables investigation of relationships between convex relaxation and non-convex optimization to facilitate a unified framework for uncertainty quantification across modeling approaches. The results of this research aim to significantly advance fundamental techniques for quantifying uncertainty in data analytics and statistical modeling.
