On pointwise adaptive curve estimation based on inhomogeneous data

Reservoir Storage Curve Estimation Based on Remote Sensing Data

A reservoir is one of the most efficient measures for integrated water resources development and management. The reservoir storage curve is a vital parameter for multipurpose reservoir operation and its precision is a key issue for water balance and strategic risk management. Compared with the traditional approach, the method based on remote sensing RS data provides better information, which ca...

On pointwise adaptive nonparametric deconvolution

We consider estimating an unknown function f from indirect white noise observations with particular emphasis on the problem of nonparametric deconvolution. Non-parametric estimators that can adapt to unknown smoothness of f are developed. The adaptive estimators are speciied under two sets of assumptions on the kernel of the convolution transform. In particular, kernels having the Fourier trans...

mortality forecasting based on lee-carter model

over the past decades a number of approaches have been applied for forecasting mortality. in 1992, a new method for long-run forecast of the level and age pattern of mortality was published by lee and carter. this method was welcomed by many authors so it was extended through a wider class of generalized, parametric and nonlinear model. this model represents one of the most influential recent d...

Pointwise adaptive estimation for quantile regression

A nonparametric procedure for quantile regression, or more generally nonparametric M-estimation, is proposed which is completely data-driven and adapts locally to the regularity of the regression function. This is achieved by considering in each point M-estimators over different local neighbourhoods and by a local model selection procedure based on sequential testing. Non-asymptotic risk bounds...
