STS - Statistical scalability

We consider the consistency properties of a regularised estimator for the simultaneous identification of both changepoints and graphical dependency structure in multivariate time-series. Traditionally, estimation of Gaussian Graphical Models (GGM) is performed in an i.i.d setting. More recently, such models have been extended to allow for changes in the distribution, but only where changepoints are known a-priori. In this work, we study the Group-Fused Graphical Lasso (GFGL) which penalises partial-correlations with an L1 penalty while simultaneously inducing block-wise smoothness over time to detect multiple changepoints. We present a proof of consistency for the estimator, both in terms of changepoints, and the structure of the graphical models in each segment. Several synthetic experiments and a real data application validate the performance of the proposed methodology.
