Sequential Gaussian approximation for nonstationary time series in high dimensions
Gaussian couplings of partial sum processes are derived for the high-dimensional regime d=o(n^1/3). The coupling is derived for sums of independent random vectors and subsequently extended to nonstationary time series. Our inequalities depend explicitly on the dimension and on a measure of nonstationarity, and are thus also applicable to arrays of random vectors. To enable high-dimensional statistical inference, a feasible Gaussian approximation scheme is proposed. Applications to sequential testing and change-point detection are described.
