Nonparametric Renewal Function Estimation and Smoothing by Empirical Data
We consider an estimate of the renewal function (rf) using a limited number of independent observations of the interarrival times for an unknown interarrival-time distribution (itd). The nonparametric estimate is derived from the rf-representation as series of distribution functions (dfs) of consecutive arrival times using a finite summation and approximations of the latter by empirical dfs. Du...
متن کاملNonparametric estimation and consistency for renewal processes
In reliability or medical studies, we may only observe each ongoing renewal process for a certain period of time. When the underlying distribution F is arithmetic, Vardi (Ann. Statist. 10 (1982b), 772-785) developed the RT algorithm for nonparametric estimation. In this paper we extend the study to the nonarithmetic case and show that the choice of an arbitrary constant in the RT algorithm can ...
متن کاملContinuous-time AR process parameter estimation from discrete-time data
The problem of estimating continuous-time autoregressive process parameters from discrete-time data is considered. The basic approach used here is based on replacing the derivatives in the model by discrete-time di erences, forming a linear regression and using the least squares method. It is known, however, that all standard approximations of the highest order derivative give a biased least sq...
متن کاملNonparametric Regression Estimation under Kernel Polynomial Model for Unstructured Data
The nonparametric estimation(NE) of kernel polynomial regression (KPR) model is a powerful tool to visually depict the effect of covariates on response variable, when there exist unstructured and heterogeneous data. In this paper we introduce KPR model that is the mixture of nonparametric regression models with bootstrap algorithm, which is considered in a heterogeneous and unstructured framewo...
متن کاملEstimation in a Semiparametric Modulated Renewal Process
We consider parameter estimation in a regression model corresponding to an iid sequence of censored observations of a finite state modulated renewal process. The model assumes a similar form as in Cox regression except that the baseline intensities are functions of the backwards recurrence time of the process and a time dependent covariate. As a result of this it falls outside the class of mult...
