Identification of parametric models with a priori knowledge of process properties

Krzysztof B. Janiszowski, Paweł Wnuk (2016)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

An approach to estimation of a parametric discrete-time model of a process in the case of some a priori knowledge of the investigated process properties is presented. The knowledge of plant properties is introduced in the form of linear bounds, which can be determined for the coefficient vector of the parametric model studied. The approach yields special biased estimation of model coefficients that preserves demanded properties. A formula for estimation of the model coefficients is derived...

Partition-based conditional density estimation

S. X. Cohen, E. Le Pennec (2013)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We propose a general partition-based strategy to estimate conditional density with candidate densities that are piecewise constant with respect to the covariate. Capitalizing on a general penalized maximum likelihood model selection result, we prove, on two specific examples, that the penalty of each model can be chosen roughly proportional to its dimension. We first study a strategy in which the densities are chosen piecewise conditional according to the variable. We then consider Gaussian...

SURE shrinkage of gaussian paths and signal identification

Nicolas Privault, Anthony Réveillac (2011)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Using integration by parts on Gaussian space we construct a Stein Unbiased Risk Estimator (SURE) for the drift of Gaussian processes, based on their local and occupation times. By almost-sure minimization of the SURE risk of shrinkage estimators we derive an estimation and de-noising procedure for an input signal perturbed by a continuous-time Gaussian noise.

Kalman filter with a non-linear non-Gaussian observation relation.

Tomás Cipra, Asunción Rubio (1991)

Trabajos de Estadística

Similarity:

The dynamic linear model with a non-linear non-Gaussian observation relation is considered in this paper. Masreliez's theorem (see Masreliez's (1975)) of approximate non-Gaussian filtering with linear state and observation relations is extended to the case of a non-linear observation relation that can be approximated by a second-order Taylor expansion.

Adaptive density estimation for clustering with gaussian mixtures

C. Maugis-Rabusseau, B. Michel (2013)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Gaussian mixture models are widely used to study clustering problems. These model-based clustering methods require an accurate estimation of the unknown data density by Gaussian mixtures. In Maugis and Michel (2009), a penalized maximum likelihood estimator is proposed for automatically selecting the number of mixture components. In the present paper, a collection of univariate densities whose logarithm is locally -Hölder with moment and tail conditions are considered. We show that this...

State estimation under non-Gaussian Lévy noise: A modified Kalman filtering method

Xu Sun, Jinqiao Duan, Xiaofan Li, Xiangjun Wang (2015)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The Kalman filter is extensively used for state estimation for linear systems under Gaussian noise. When non-Gaussian Lévy noise is present, the conventional Kalman filter may fail to be effective due to the fact that the non-Gaussian Lévy noise may have infinite variance. A modified Kalman filter for linear systems with non-Gaussian Lévy noise is devised. It works effectively with reasonable computational cost. Simulation results are presented to illustrate this non-Gaussian filtering...

Data-driven penalty calibration: A case study for gaussian mixture model selection

Cathy Maugis, Bertrand Michel (2011)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In the companion paper [C. Maugis and B. Michel, A non asymptotic penalized criterion for Gaussian mixture model selection. 15 (2011) 41–68] , a penalized likelihood criterion is proposed to select a Gaussian mixture model among a specific model collection. This criterion depends on unknown constants which have to be calibrated in practical situations. A “slope heuristics” method is described and experimented to deal with this practical problem. In a model-based clustering context,...

On parameter estimation in an in vitro compartmental model for drug-induced enzyme production in pharmacotherapy

Jurjen Duintjer Tebbens, Ctirad Matonoha, Andreas Matthios, Štěpán Papáček (2019)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

A pharmacodynamic model introduced earlier in the literature for in silico prediction of rifampicin-induced CYP3A4 enzyme production is described and some aspects of the involved curve-fitting based parameter estimation are discussed. Validation with our own laboratory data shows that the quality of the fit is particularly sensitive with respect to an unknown parameter representing the concentration of the nuclear receptor PXR (pregnane X receptor). A detailed analysis of the influence...

Variance function estimation via model selection

Teresa Ledwina, Jan Mielniczuk (2010)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The problem of estimating an unknown variance function in a random design Gaussian heteroscedastic regression model is considered. Both the regression function and the logarithm of the variance function are modelled by piecewise polynomials. A finite collection of such parametric models based on a family of partitions of support of an explanatory variable is studied. Penalized model selection criteria as well as post-model-selection estimates are introduced based on Maximum Likelihood...

Set-membership identifiability of nonlinear models and related parameter estimation properties

Carine Jauberthie, Louise Travé-Massuyès, Nathalie Verdière (2016)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Identifiability guarantees that the mathematical model of a dynamic system is well defined in the sense that it maps unambiguously its parameters to the output trajectories. This paper casts identifiability in a set-membership (SM) framework and relates recently introduced properties, namely, SM-identifiability, μ-SM-identifiability, and ε-SM-identifiability, to the properties of parameter estimation problems. Soundness and ε-consistency are proposed to characterize these problems and...

On the tail index estimation of an autoregressive Pareto process

Marta Ferreira (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In this paper we consider an autoregressive Pareto process which can be used as an alternative to heavy tailed MARMA. We focus on the tail behavior and prove that the tail empirical quantile function can be approximated by a Gaussian process. This result allows to derive a class of consistent and asymptotically normal estimators for the shape parameter. We will see through simulation that the usual estimation procedure based on an i.i.d. setting may fall short of the desired precision. ...
