Algorithms for maximum-likelihood bandwidth selection in kernel density estimators
In machine learning and statistics, kernel density estimators are rarely used on multivariate data due to the difficulty of finding an appropriate kernel bandwidth to overcome overfitting. However, the recent advances on information-theoretic learning have revived the interest on these models. With this motivation, in this paper we revisit the classical statistical problem of data-driven bandwi...
متن کاملRates of Convergence of Maximum Likelihood Estimators Via Entropy Methods
I declare that this essay is my own work done as part of the Part III Examination. It is the result of my own work, and except where stated otherwise, includes nothing which was performed in collaboration. No part of this essay has been submitted for a degree or any such qualification.
متن کاملThe Convergence of Lossy Maximum Likelihood Estimators
Given a sequence of observations (Xn)n≥1 and a family of probability distributions {Qθ}θ∈Θ, the lossy likelihood of a particular distribution Qθ given the data Xn 1 := (X1,X2, . . . ,Xn) is defined as Qθ(B(X 1 ,D)), where B(Xn 1 ,D) is the distortion-ball of radius D around the source sequence X n 1 . Here we investigate the convergence of maximizers of the lossy likelihood.
متن کاملAsymptotic Distributions of Quasi-Maximum Likelihood Estimators
Asymptotic properties of MLEs and QMLEs of mixed regressive, spatial autoregressive models are investigated. The stochastic rates of convergence of the MLE and QMLE for such models may be less than the √ n-rate under some circumstances even though its limiting distribution is asymptotically normal. When spatially varying regressors are relevant, the MLE and QMLE of the mixed regressive, autoreg...
متن کاملCommon Voting Rules as Maximum Likelihood Estimators
Voting is a very general method of preference aggregation. A voting rule takes as input every voter’s vote (typically, a ranking of the alternatives), and produces as output either just the winning alternative or a ranking of the alternatives. One potential view of voting is the following. There exists a “correct” outcome (winner/ranking), and each voter’s vote corresponds to a noisy perception...
