The lab develops theory and methods for the statistical analysis of high-dimensional data.

AboutAbout the lab
Reading high-dimensional data through mathematics
Aoshima Lab studies theory and methodology for the statistical analysis of high-dimension, low-sample-size (HDLSS) data, in which the dimension is far larger than the sample size.
Genomic data, for example, involve tens of thousands to millions of genes but only a few dozen subjects.
It has been mathematically proven that conventional statistics cannot guarantee accuracy for such data and can sometimes give wrong answers.
With the research stance of accurately understanding the mathematical foundations behind statistics, the lab is pioneering new statistical theory and methodology.
Key terms
- High-dimension, low-sample-size (HDLSS) data
- Data whose dimension is far larger than its sample size. Genomic data are an example
- Genomic data
- An example of HDLSS data. The dimension corresponds to the number of genes, and the sample size to the number of subjects
- HDLSS asymptotic theory
- A unified approach for giving statistical accuracy guarantees to the methodologies the lab has developed

ResearchResearch themes
One characteristic of data in modern science is that the dimension is far larger than the sample size. Going beyond the framework of conventional statistics, the lab builds theory and methodology for high-dimensional data analysis based on new ways of thinking.
