On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
We consider a regression model where the coefficients vary across unknown groups. The groups are determined by an unknown partition of the covariate space, and the elements of the partition are in the form of unions of contiguous axis-aligned hyperrectangles. Such a structure allows us to develop a new estimation procedure based on the regression tree algorithm that consistently recovers the unknown group structure and the group-specific coefficients. Moreover, if the number of groups is small, the procedure has the oracle property.
