The paper aims at reconsidering the famous Le Cam LAN theory. The main features of the approach which make it different from the classical one are: (1) the study is non-asymptotic, that is, the sample size is xed and does not tend to infinity; (2) the parametric assumption is possibly misspecified and the underlying data distribution can lie beyond the given parametric family. The main results include a large deviation bounds for the (quasi) maximum likelihood and the local quadratic…

This paper develops nonasymptotic concentration results for such an adaptive Huber estimator with the tuning parameter adapted to sample size, dimension, and the variance of the noise and shows that the robust dependence-adjusted procedure asymptotically controls the overall false discovery proportion at the nominal level under mild moment conditions.
