A proposed nonparametric mixture density estimation using B-spline functions
In this paper, we suppose that a density of probability f is expressed as a finite linear combination of second order B-spline functions. Then, we obtain a finite mixture of B-spline. We extend the Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm in order to estimate the new mixture density. The experiments show that the proposed estimator using B-spline functions can produce a satisfactory estimation o...
متن کاملSmoothing Spline Estimation of Variance Functions
This article considers spline smoothing of variance functions. We focus on selection of smoothing parameters and develop three direct data-driven methods: unbiased risk (UBR), generalized approximate cross validation (GACV) and generalized maximum likelihood (GML). In addition to guaranteed convergence, simulations show that these direct methods perform better than existing indirect UBR, genera...

In this paper we propose a method to approximate a parametric 3 D-function by bicubic B-spline functions
متن کاملUsing Spline Functions to Represent Distributed Attributes
All current G1S systems assign discrete, static attribute values to geometric objects (vector, pixel, or voxel). This is not how the world usually works. Physical objects of geographic importance are heterogeneous things. The width, depth, and flow-rate of a river, the porosity, density, and permeability of a rock body, the pressure, temperature, and velocity of the air or water, all of these t...
متن کاملRegularized spectrum estimation using stable spline kernels
This paper presents a new regularized kernel-based approach for the estimation of the second order moments of stationary stochastic processes. The proposed estimator is defined by a Tikhonov-type variational problem. It contains few unknown parameters which can be estimated by cross validation solving a sequence of problems whose computational complexity scales linearly with the number of noisy...
