Minimum Rates of Approximate Sufficient Statistics

Minimum Rates of Approximate Sufficient Statistics

Given a sufficient statistic for a parametric family of distributions, one can estimate the parameter without access to the data. However, the memory or code size for storing the sufficient statistic may nonetheless still be prohibitive. Indeed, for n independent samples drawn from a k-nomial distribution with d = k …
