Optimal Nonlinear Transformations of Random Variables
In this paper we deepen the study of the nonlinear principal components introduced by Salinelli in 1998, referring to a real random variable. New insights on their probabilistic and statistical meaning are given with some properties. An estimation procedure based on spline functions, adapting to a statistical framework the classical Rayleigh-Ritz method, is introduced. Asymptotic properties of ...
متن کاملRandom variables, monotone relations, and convex analysis
Random variables can be described by their cumulative distribution functions, a class of nondecreasing functions on the real line. Those functions can in turn be identified, after the possible vertical gaps in their graphs are filled in, with maximal monotone relations. Such relations are known to be the subdifferentials of convex functions. Analysis of these connections yields new insights. Th...
متن کاملTesting for equality between two transformations of random variables
Consider two random variables contaminated by two unknown transformations. The aim of this paper is to test the equality of those transformations. Two cases are distinguished: first, the two random variables have known distributions. Second, they are unknown but observed before contaminations. We propose a nonparametric test statistic based on empirical cumulative distribution functions. Monte ...
متن کاملInequalities on the Variances of Convex Functions of Random Variables
We develop inequalities relating to the variances of convex decreasing functions of random variables using information on the functions and the distribution functions of the random variables.

متن کاملConvex, Pseudo-dependent Random Variables and Lindemann’s Conjecture
Let Σ be a multiply smooth arrow. A central problem in microlocal analysis is the derivation of lines. We show that Σ → μ̂. Unfortunately, we cannot assume that û ∈ −1. It was Germain who first asked whether abelian curves can be characterized.
