Support and Quantile Tubes
Abstract
This correspondence studies an estimator of the conditional support of a distribution underlying a set of i.i.d. observations. The relation with mutual information is shown via an extension of Fano's theorem in combination with a generalization bound based on a compression argument. Extensions to estimating the conditional quantile interval, and statistical guarantees on the minimal convex hull are given.
