As a consequence, if  = ( ,, ) is a -valued random variable with absolutely continuous law, then almost surely (()) has a unique –mean. In particular if ( ...

Semimartingale decomposition of convex functions of continuous semimartingales by brownian perturbation

Nastasiya F. Grinberg (2013)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In this note we prove that the local martingale part of a convex function of a -dimensional semimartingale  =  +  can be written in terms of an Itô stochastic integral ∫()d, where () is some particular measurable choice of subgradient ∇ f ( x ) of at , and is the martingale part of . This result was first proved by Bouleau in [N. Bouleau, 292 (1981) 87–90]. Here we present a new treatment of the problem. We first prove the result for X ˜ = X + ϵ B x10ff65; X = X + ϵB , > 0, where is...

Exponential deficiency of convolutions of densities

Iosif Pinelis (2012)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

If a probability density (x) (x ∈ ℝ) is bounded and := ∫e (x)dx < ∞ for some linear functional u and all  ∈ (01), then, for each  ∈ (01) and all large enough , the -fold convolution of the -tilted density p ˜ t ˜pt := e (x)/ is bounded. This is a corollary of a general, “non-i.i.d.” result, which is also shown to enjoy a certain optimality property. Such results and their corollaries stated in terms of the absolute integrability of the corresponding characteristic...

Penalization versus Goldenshluger − Lepski strategies in warped bases regression

Gaëlle Chagny (2013)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

This paper deals with the problem of estimating a regression function , in a random design framework. We build and study two adaptive estimators based on model selection, applied with warped bases. We start with a collection of finite dimensional linear spaces, spanned by orthonormal bases. Instead of expanding directly the target function on these bases, we rather consider the expansion of  =  ∘ , where is the cumulative distribution function of the design, following...

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

Let be a hereditary property of words, , an infinite class of finite words such that every subword (block) of a word belonging to is also in . Extending the classical Morse-Hedlund theorem, we show that either contains at least words of length for every  or, for some , it contains at most words of length for every . More importantly, we prove the following quantitative extension of this result: if has words of length then, for every , it contains at most ⌈( + 1)/2⌉⌈( + 1)/2⌈...

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

This paper deals with the problem of estimating the level sets () =  {() ≥ }, with  ∈ (0,1), of an unknown distribution function on ℝ . A plug-in approach is followed. That is, given a consistent estimator of , we estimate () by () =  { () ≥ }. In our setting, non-compactness property is required for the level sets to estimate. We state consistency results with respect to the Hausdorff distance and the volume of the symmetric...

Some analytical sufficient conditions...

Variational approximation of a functional of Mumford–Shah type in codimension higher than one

Francesco Ghiraldin (2014)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper we consider a new kind of Mumford–Shah functional () for maps : ℝ → ℝ with  ≥ . The most important novelty is that the energy features a singular set of codimension greater than one, defined through the theory of distributional jacobians. After recalling the basic definitions and some well established results, we prove an approximation property for the energy ()  −convergence, in the same spirit of the work by Ambrosio and Tortorelli [L....

We consider numeration systems with base and − , for quadratic Pisot numbers and focus on comparing the combinatorial structure of the sets Z and Z of numbers with integer expansion in base , resp. − . Our main result is the comparison of languages of infinite words and coding the ordering of distances between consecutive - and (− )-integers. It turns out that for a class of roots of − − , the languages coincide, while for other...
