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...

On-line nonparametric estimation.

Rafail Khasminskii (2004)

SORT

Similarity:

A survey of some recent results on nonparametric on-line estimation is presented. The first result deals with an on-line estimation for a smooth signal S(t) in the classic 'signal plus Gaussian white noise' model. Then an analogous on-line estimator for the regression estimation problem with equidistant design is described and justified. Finally some preliminary results related to the on-line estimation for the diffusion observed process are described.

Posterior regret Γ-minimax estimation in a normal model with asymmetric loss function

Agata Boratyńska (2002)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The problem of posterior regret Γ-minimax estimation under LINEX loss function is considered. A general form of posterior regret Γ-minimax estimators is presented and it is applied to a normal model with two classes of priors. A situation when the posterior regret Γ-minimax estimator, the most stable estimator and the conditional Γ-minimax estimator coincide is presented.

Adaptive estimation of a density function using beta kernels

Karine Bertin, Nicolas Klutchnikoff (2014)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In this paper we are interested in the estimation of a density − defined on a compact interval of ℝ− from independent and identically distributed observations. In order to avoid boundary effect, beta kernel estimators are used and we propose a procedure (inspired by Lepski’s method) in order to select the bandwidth. Our procedure is proved to be adaptive in an asymptotically minimax framework. Our estimator is compared with both the cross-validation algorithm and the oracle estimator...

On asymptotics of the maximum likelihood scale invariant estimator of the shape parameter of the gamma distribution

A. Zaigraev, A. Podraza-Karakulska (2008)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The maximum likelihood scale invariant estimator of the shape parameter of the gamma distribution, proposed by the authors [Statist. Probab. Lett. 78 (2008)], is considered. The asymptotics of the mean square error of this estimator, with respect to that of the usual maximum likelihood estimator, is established.

Robust m-estimator of parameters in variance components model

Roman Zmyślony, Stefan Zontek (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

It is shown that a method of robust estimation in a two way crossed classification mixed model, recently proposed by Bednarski and Zontek (1996), can be extended to a more general case of variance components model with commutative a covariance matrices.

Unbiased risk estimation method for covariance estimation

Hélène Lescornel, Jean-Michel Loubes, Claudie Chabriac (2014)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We consider a model selection estimator of the covariance of a random process. Using the Unbiased Risk Estimation (U.R.E.) method, we build an estimator of the risk which allows to select an estimator in a collection of models. Then, we present an oracle inequality which ensures that the risk of the selected estimator is close to the risk of the oracle. Simulations show the efficiency of this methodology.

Minimax and bayes estimation in deconvolution problem

Mikhail Ermakov (2008)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We consider a deconvolution problem of estimating a signal blurred with a random noise. The noise is assumed to be a stationary Gaussian process multiplied by a weight function function where and is a small parameter. The underlying solution is assumed to be infinitely differentiable. For this model we find asymptotically minimax and Bayes estimators. In the case of solutions having finite number of derivatives similar results were obtained in [G.K. Golubev and R.Z. Khasminskii,...
