kn-Nearest Neighbor Estimators of Entropy
For estimating the entropy of an absolutely continuous multivariate distribution, we propose nonparametric estimators based on the Euclidean distances between the n sample points and their kn-nearest neighbors, where {kn : n = 1, 2, . . .} is a sequence of positive integers varying with n. The proposed estimators are shown to be asymptotically unbiased and consistent.
متن کاملNearest-neighbor entropy estimators with weak metrics
A problem of improving the accuracy of nonparametric entropy estimation for a stationary ergodic process is considered. New weak metrics are introduced and relations between metrics, measures, and entropy are discussed. Based on weak metrics, a new nearest-neighbor entropy estimator is constructed and has a parameter with which the estimator is optimized to reduce its bias. It is shown that est...
متن کاملDepth-first k-nearest neighbor finding using the MaxNearestDist estimator
A description is given of how to use an estimate of the maximum possible distance at which a nearest neighbor can be found to prune the search process in a depth-first branch and bound k-nearest neighbor finding algorithm.
متن کاملEvaluating Emissions Trading Using a Nearest (Polluting) Neighbor Estimator
This paper uses a nearest neighbor matching estimator to examine the effects of an emissions trading program. An important perceived advantage of “cap-and-trade” programs over more traditional, more prescriptive forms of regulation is that enhanced compliance flexibility and cost effectiveness can make more stringent emissions reductions politically feasible. A potential disadvantage is that a ...
متن کاملAsymptotic Behaviors of Nearest Neighbor Kernel Density Estimator in Left-truncated Data
Kernel density estimators are the basic tools for density estimation in non-parametric statistics. The k-nearest neighbor kernel estimators represent a special form of kernel density estimators, in which the bandwidth is varied depending on the location of the sample points. In this paper, we initially introduce the k-nearest neighbor kernel density estimator in the random left-truncatio...
