A Functional Density-Based Nonparametric Approach for Statistical Calibration
In this paper a new nonparametric functional method is introduced for predicting a scalar random variable Y from a functional random variable X. The resulting prediction has the form of a weighted average of the training data set, where the weights are determined by the conditional probability density of X given Y , which is assumed to be Gaussian. In this way such a conditional probability den...
متن کاملNonparametric Density Estimation and Clustering with Application to Cosmology
We present a clustering method based on nonparametric density estimation. We use Kernel smoothing and orthogonal series estimators to estimate the density f and then we extract the connected components of the level set using a modified Cuevas et al (2000) algorithm. We extend an idea due to Stein (1981) and Beran and Dümbgen (1998) to construct confidence sets for the level set {f > δc} using t...
متن کاملFunctional data clustering via piecewise constant nonparametric density estimation
In this paper, we present a novel way of analyzing and summarizing a collection of curves, based on piecewise constant density estimation. The curves are partitioned into clusters, and the dimensions of the curves points are discretized into intervals. The cross-product of these univariate partitions forms a data grid of cells, which represents a nonparametric estimator of the joint density of ...
متن کاملClustering via nonparametric density estimation: an application to microarray data
Cluster analysis is a crucial tool in several biological and medical studies dealing with microarray data. Such studies pose challenging statistical problems due to dimensionality issues, being the number of variables much higher than the number of observations. Here, we present a novel approach to clustering of microarray data via nonparametric density estimation, based on the following steps:...
متن کاملClustering via Nonparametric Density Estimation: the R Package pdfCluster
The R package pdfCluster performs cluster analysis based on a nonparametric estimate of the density of the observed variables. After summarizing the main aspects of the methodology, we describe the features and the usage of the package, and finally illustrate its working with the aid of two datasets.
