Bentkus-type asymptotic e-values

arXiv:2606.06332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Asymptotic e-values are emerging as a powerful alternative to asymptotic p-values, particularly in post-hoc inference and multiple testing, where significance levels may be data-dependent. Existing asymptotic e-values, however, suffer from the ``missing factor,'' a scaling inefficiency resulting in overly conservative inference. Drawing on the framework of near-optimal concentration inequalities developed by Bentkus in the 2000s, we introduce Bentkus-type asymptotic e-values and prove that they successfully eliminate the missing factor. We als…
