Parameter estimation under orthant restrictions
The authors consider the estimation of linear functions of a multivariate parameter under orthant restrictions. These restrictions are considered both for location models and for the Poisson distribution. For these models, situations are characterized for which the restricted maximum likelihood estimator dominates the unrestricted one for the estimation of any linear function of the parameter. ...
متن کاملTriangulation of Cross-sectional Digital Straight Segments and Minimum Length Polygons for Surface Area Estimation
This paper proposes a new heuristic locally determined algorithm for the triangulation between points sequences representing serial sections of a surface. Moreover, a strategy for surface area estimation based on triangulation of cross sectional contours is described, where each contour is represented by its sequence of vertices of maximal digital straight segments (DSS), or by its minimal leng...
متن کاملMultigrid Convergence and Surface Area Estimation
Surface area of discrete objects is an important feature for model-based image analysis. In this article, we present a theoretical framework in order to prove multigrid convergence of surface area estimators based on discrete normal vector field integration. The paper details an algorithm which is optimal in time and multigrid convergent to estimate the surface area and a very efficient algorit...
متن کاملEfficient Estimation under Privacy Restrictions in the Disclosure Problem
In the disclosure problem already collected data are disclosed only to such extent that the individual privacy is protected to at least a prescribed level. For this problem estimators are introducted which are both simple and efficient.
متن کاملEstimation of a Function under Shape Restrictions . Applications to Reliability
This paper deals with a nonparametric shape respecting estimation method for U-shaped or unimodal functions. A general upper bound for the nonasymptotic L1-risk of the estimator is given. The method is applied to the shape respecting estimation of several classical functions, among them typical intensity functions encountered in the reliability field. In each case, we derive from our upper boun...
