Abstract
This dissertation consists of three unrelated parts: - Only Part I is related to the title of this thesis, Valid inference after data snooping. It provides a unified framework for understanding the flurry of recent work in post-selection inference, unifying the three goals of estimation, testing, and confidence intervals. I have attempted to provide a clean exposition of the motivation, theoretical results, and algorithms. - Part II is a collection of two published IEEE conference papers relating to statistics and audio signal processing. Both papers study low-rank models of audio spectrograms. - Part III describes the design of OHMS, an online homework system I designed and developed with Naftali Harris. This will hopefully be useful to people wishing to use and improve upon our open-source system. Details on how to obtain our code can be found in the Appendix.
