Fast nonparametric estimation for convolutions of densities
The present paper is concerned with the problem of estimating the convolution of densities. We propose an adaptive estimator based on kernel methods, Fourier analysis and the Lepski method. We study its L2-risk properties. Fast and new rates of convergence are determined for a wide class of unknown functions. Numerical illustrations, on both simulated and real data, are provided to assess the p...
متن کاملTransformation-based nonparametric estimation of multivariate densities
We propose a probability-integral-transformation-based estimator of multivariate densities. We first transform multivariate data into their corresponding marginal distributions. The marginal densities and the joint density of the transformed data are estimated nonparametrically. The density of the original data is constructed as the product of the density of transformed data and that of the mar...
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of Multivariate Convex-transformed Densities.
We study estimation of multivariate densities p of the form p(x) = h(g(x)) for x ∈ ℝ(d) and for a fixed monotone function h and an unknown convex function g. The canonical example is h(y) = e(-y) for y ∈ ℝ; in this case, the resulting class of densities [Formula: see text]is well known as the class of log-concave densities. Other functions h allow for classes of densities with heavier tails tha...
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of Possibly Similar Densities
The University of Arizona is an equal opportunity, affirmative action institution. The University does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability , veteran status, or sexual orientation in its programs and activities. Summary In empirical settings it is sometimes necessary to estimate a set of densities which are thought to be of similar struct...
متن کاملFast Nonparametric Conditional Density Estimation
Conditional density estimation. The idea of conditional density estimation is to construct a density estimate f̂(y|x) for a dependent variable y, conditional on a vector of variables x. This can be seen as a generalization of regression, where instead of estimating the expected value E(y|x) alone, we instead model the full density. This is especially important for multi-modal densities, where th...
