Local likelihood modeling by adaptive weights smoothing
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents a unified approach to local likelihood estimation for a broad class of nonparametric models, including e.g. the regression, density, Poisson and binary response model. The method extends the adaptive weights smoothing (AWS) procedure introduced in Polzehl and Spokoiny (2000) in context of image denois-ing. Performance of the proposed procedure is illustrated by a number of numerical examples and applications to estimation of the tail index parameter, classification, density and volatility estimation. 1 2 local likelihood modeling by adaptive weights smoothing

Varying Coefficient Regression Modeling by Adaptive Weights Smoothing
The adaptive weights smoothing (AWS) procedure was introduced in Polzehl and Spokoiny (2000) in the context of image denoising. The procedure has some remarkable properties like preservation of edges and contrast, and (in some sense) optimal reduction of noise. The procedure is also fully adaptive and dimension free. Simulations with artificial images show that AWS is superior to classical smoo...
متن کاملLocal Likelihood Estimation in Varying-coeecient Models including Additive Bias Correction
Varying coeecient models result from generalized linear models by allowing the parameter of the linear predictor to vary across some additional explanatory quantity called eeect modiier. While Hastie & Tibshirani (1993) have used spline smoothing techniques in varying-coeecient models with univariate response here the local likelihood approach is considered within the framework of multivariate ...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Empirical Likelihood Test for Parametric Time Series Regression Models
A test for a parametric regression model against a sequence of local alternative is constructed based on an empirical likelihood test statistic that measures the goodness-of-fit between the parametric model and its nonparametric counterpart. To reduce the dependence of the test on a single smoothing bandwidth, the test is formulated by maximizing a standardized version of the empirical likeliho...
متن کاملA Local Nonparametric Model for Simultaneous Image Segmentation and Adaptive Smoothing
Parametric and nonparametric region based active contour models have been widely used in image segmentation and showed promising results. However, since segmentation processing in these models are driven by intensity probability density functions (p.d.f.), intensity inhomogeneity and higher level of noise are always challenging problems that need to be addressed. In this paper we present a nove...
متن کاملA new adaptive exponential smoothing method for non-stationary time series with level shifts
Simple exponential smoothing (SES) methods are the most commonly used methods in forecasting and time series analysis. However, they are generally insensitive to non-stationary structural events such as level shifts, ramp shifts, and spikes or impulses. Similar to that of outliers in stationary time series, these non-stationary events will lead to increased level of errors in the forecasting pr...
