Nonparametric Estimation of the Tail-dependence Coefficient
• A common measure of tail dependence is the so-called tail-dependence coefficient. We present a nonparametric estimator of the tail-dependence coefficient and prove its strong consistency and asymptotic normality in the case of known marginal distribution functions. The finite-sample behavior as well as robustness will be assessed through simulation. Although it has a good performance, it is s...
متن کاملAdaptive minimax estimation of a fractional derivative
This paper considers a problem of adaptation in estimating a fractional antiderivative of an unknown drift density from observations in Gaussian white noise. This problem is closely related to the Wicksell problem. Under the assumption that the drift density belongs to a Sobolev class with unknown smoothness, an adaptive estimator is constructed. r 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملMinimax Optimal Procedures for Locally Private Estimation
Working under a model of privacy in which data remains private even from the statistician,we study the tradeoff between privacy guarantees and the risk of the resulting statistical estima-tors. We develop private versions of classical information-theoretic bounds, in particular thosedue to Le Cam, Fano, and Assouad. These inequalities allow for a precise characterization ofs...
متن کاملAdaptive Minimax Estimation over Sparse q-Hulls
Given a dictionary of Mn initial estimates of the unknown true regression function, we aim to construct linearly aggregated estimators that target the best performance among all the linear combinations under a sparse q-norm (0 ≤ q ≤ 1) constraint on the linear coefficients. Besides identifying the optimal rates of aggregation for these lq-aggregation problems, our multi-directional (or adaptive...
متن کاملMinimax optimal estimation of general bandable covariance matrices
Cai et al. (2010) [4] have studied the minimax optimal estimation of a collection of large bandable covariance matrices whose off-diagonal entries decay to zero at a polynomial rate. They have shown that the minimax optimal procedures are fundamentally different under Frobenius and spectral norms, regardless of the rate of polynomial decay. To gain more insight into this interesting problem, we...
