Needles and Straw in Haystacks: Empirical Bayes Estimates of Possibly Sparse Sequences
An empirical Bayes approach to the estimation of possibly sparse sequences observed in Gaussian white noise is set out and investigated. The prior considered is a mixture of an atom of probability at zero and a heavy-tailed density γ, with the mixing weight chosen by marginal maximum likelihood, in the hope of adapting between sparse and dense sequences. If estimation is then carried out using ...

متن کاملBayes Estimates of Markov Trends in Possibly Cointegrated Series: An Application to US Consumption and Income
Stylized facts show that average growth rates of US per capita consumption and income differ in recession and expansion periods. Since a linear combination of such series does not have to be a constant mean process, standard cointegration analysis between the variables to examine the permanent income hypothesis may not be valid. To model the changing growth rates in both series, we introduce a ...

متن کاملA Priori Estimates , Geometric Effects and Asymptotic Behavior
Many physical phenomena can be described by a partial differential equation Pu=0. Here P denotes some differential operator or system of such operators, and u, the unknown function, is either a scalar or a vector. The differential equation connects the derivatives of u at each point of its domain D. The mathematician is interested in the global consequences of this local constraint, especially ...
