Nonparametric 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 کاملNonparametric Density Estimation via Diffusion Mixing
Suppose we are given empirical data and a prior density about the distribution of the data. We wish to construct a nonparametric density estimator that incorporates the prior information. We propose an estimator that allows for the incorporation of prior information in the density estimation procedure within a non-Bayesian framework. The prior density is mixed with the available empirical data ...
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 کاملOn the Consistency of Minimum Complexity Nonparametric Estimation
Nonparametric estimation is usually inconsistent without some form of regularization. One way to impose regularity is through a prior measure. Barron and Cover [1], [2] have shown that complexitybased prior measures can insure consistency, at least when restricted to countable dense subsets of the infinite-dimensional parameter (i.e., function) space. Strangely, however, these results are indep...
متن کاملPosterior Consistency in Nonparametric Regression Problems under Gaussian Process Priors
Posterior consistency can be thought of as a theoretical justification of the Bayesian method. One of the most popular approaches to nonparametric Bayesian regression is to put a nonparametric prior distribution on the unknown regression function using Gaussian processes. In this paper, we study posterior consistency in nonparametric regression problems using Gaussian process priors. We use an ...
