• We study the distribution of the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) in high-dimensional logistic models, extending the recent results from Sur (2019) to the case where the Gaussian covariates may have an arbitrary covariance structure. We prove that in the limit of large problems holding the ratio between the number $p$ of covariates and the sample size $n$ constant, every finite list of MLE coordinates follows a multivariate normal distribution. Concretely, the $j$th coordinate \$\hat {\beta}_j… CONTINUE READING
