Asymptotics of Exponential Families
نویسنده
چکیده
if we use the convention that additive terms that do not contain the parameter may be dropped from log likelihoods (because they do not affect any likelihood-based statistical inferences). Thus we have another definition of exponential families: a statistical model is an exponential family of distributions if there exists a statistic Y and a parameter θ such that the log likelihood has the form (4).

Exponential Asymptotics for Solitons in PT -Symmetric Periodic Potentials
Solitons in one-dimensional parity-time (PT )-symmetric periodic potentials are studied using exponential asymptotics. The new feature of this exponential asymptotics is that, unlike conservative periodic potentials, the inner and outer integral equations arising in this analysis are both coupled systems due to complex-valued solitons. Solving these coupled systems, we show that two soliton fam...
متن کاملEstimation in Exponential Families on Permutations by Sumit Mukherjee
Asymptotics of the normalizing constant are computed for a class of one parameter exponential families on permutations which include Mallows models with Spearmans’s Footrule and Spearman’s Rank Correlation Statistic. The MLE and a computable approximation of the MLE are shown to be consistent. The pseudo-likelihood estimator of Besag is shown to be √ n-consistent. An iterative algorithm (IPFP) ...
متن کاملExponential Asymptotics for Line Solitons in TwoDimensional Periodic Potentials
As a first step toward a fully two-dimensional asymptotic theory for the bifurcation of solitons from infinitesimal continuous waves, an analytical theory is presented for line solitons, whose envelope varies only along one direction, in general two-dimensional periodic potentials. For this two-dimensional problem, it is no longer viable to rely on a certain recurrence relation for going beyond...
متن کاملAsymptotic Normality of Posterior Distributions for Exponential Families when the Number of Parameters Tends to Infinity
Exponential families arise naturally in statistical modelling and the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) is consistent and asymptotically normal for these models [Berk [2]]. In practice, often one needs to consider models with a large number of parameters, particularly if the sample size is large; see Huber [14], Haberman [13] and Portnoy [18 21]. One may also think that the true model can only ...
متن کاملTesting a Point Null Hypothesis against One-Sided for Non Regular and Exponential Families: The Reconcilability Condition to P-values and Posterior Probability
In this paper, the reconcilability between the P-value and the posterior probability in testing a point null hypothesis against the one-sided hypothesis is considered. Two essential families, non regular and exponential family of distributions, are studied. It was shown in a non regular family of distributions; in some cases, it is possible to find a prior distribution function under which P-va...
