Minimum volume semialgebraic sets for robust estimation
Motivated by problems of uncertainty propagation and robust estimation we are interested in computing a polynomial sublevel set of fixed degree and minimum volume that contains a given semialgebraic set K. At this level of generality this problem is not tractable, even though it becomes convex e.g. when restricted to nonnegative homogeneous polynomials. Our contribution is to describe and justi...
متن کاملLearning Minimum Volume Sets
Given a probability measure P and a reference measure μ, one is often interested in the minimum μ-measure set with P -measure at least α. Minimum volume sets of this type summarize the regions of greatest probability mass of P , and are useful for detecting anomalies and constructing confidence regions. This paper addresses the problem of estimating minimum volume sets based on independent samp...
متن کاملMinimum complexity density estimation
The minimum complexity or minimum description-length criterion developed by Kolmogorov, Rissanen, Wallace, So&in, and others leads to consistent probability density estimators. These density estimators are defined to achieve the best compromise between likelihood and simplicity. A related issue is the compromise between accuracy of approximations and complexity relative to the sample size. An i...
متن کاملMultiscale Likelihood Analysis and Complexity Penalized Estimation
We describe here a framework for a certain class of multiscale likelihood factorizations wherein, in analogy to a wavelet decomposition of an L function, a given likelihood function has an alternative representation as a product of conditional densities reflecting information in both the data and the parameter vector localized in position and scale. The framework is developed as a set of suffic...
متن کاملMinimum complexity regression estimation with weakly dependent observations
The minimum complexity regression estimation framework, due to Andrew Barron, is a general data-driven methodology for estimating a regression function from a given list of parametric models using independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) observations. We extend Barron’s regression estimationframework tom-dependent observations and to stronglymixing observations. In particular, we propos...
