Minimaxity in predictive density estimation with parametric constraints
This paper is concerned with estimation of a predictive density with parametric constraints under Kullback-Leibler loss. When an invariance structure is embedded in the problem, general and unified conditions for the minimaxity of the best equivariant predictive density estimator are derived. These conditions are applied to check minimaxity in various restricted parameter spaces in location and...
متن کاملGeneralised Density Forecast Combinations *
Density forecast combinations are becoming increasingly popular as a means of improving forecast ‘accuracy’, as measured by a scoring rule. In this paper we generalise this literature by letting the combination weights follow more general schemes. Sieve estimation is used to optimise the score of the generalised density combination where the combination weights depend on the variable one is try...
متن کاملPropagating Logical Combinations of Constraints
Many constraint toolkits provide logical connectives like disjunction, negation and implication. These permit complex constraint expressions to be built from primitive constraints. However, the propagation of such complex constraint expressions is typically limited. We therefore present a simple and light weight method for propagating complex constraint expressions. We provide a precise charact...
متن کاملTractable Combinations of Global Constraints
We study the complexity of constraint satisfaction problems involving global constraints, i.e., special-purpose constraints provided by a solver and represented implicitly by a parametrised algorithm. Such constraints are widely used; indeed, they are one of the key reasons for the success of constraint programming in solving real-world problems. Previous work has focused on the development of ...
متن کاملMoment-Based Density Approximants
It is often the case that the exact moments of a statistic of the continuous type can be explicitly determined, while its density function either does not lend itself to numerical evaluation or proves to be mathematically intractable. The density approximants discussed in this article are based on the first n exact moments of the corresponding distributions. A unified semiparametric approach to...
