Nonparametric Inference For Density Modes
We derive nonparametric confidence intervals for the eigenvalues of the Hessian at modes of a density estimate. This provides information about the strength and shape of modes and can also be used as a significance test. We use a datasplitting approach in which potential modes are identified using the first half of the data and inference is done with the second half of the data. To get valid co...
متن کاملNon-parametric Statistical Inference
In most statistical problems treated in the literature a datum of the problem is the information that the various distributions of the chance variables involved belong to given families of distribution functions (d.f.'s) completely specified except for one or more parameters. Non-parametric statistical inference is concerned with problems where the d.f.'s are not specified to such an extent, an...
متن کاملNon Parametric Methods for Genomic Inference
Large-scale statistical analysis of data sets associated with genome sequences plays an important role in modern biology. A key component of such statistical analyses is the computation of p-values and confidence bounds for statistics defined on the genome. Currently such computation is commonly achieved through ad hoc simulation measures. The method of randomization, which is at the heart of t...
متن کاملExact Statistical Inference for Some Parametric Nonhomogeneous Poisson Processes
Nonhomogeneous Poisson processes (NHPPs) are often used to model recurrent events, and there is thus a need to check model fit for such models. We study the problem of obtaining exact goodness-of-fit tests for certain parametric NHPPs, using a method based on Monte Carlo simulation conditional on sufficient statistics. A closely related way of obtaining exact confidence intervals in parametri...
