Self-consistent method for density estimation
The estimation of a density profile from experimental data points is a challenging problem, usually tackled by plotting a histogram. Prior assumptions on the nature of the density, from its smoothness to the specification of its form, allow the design of more accurate estimation procedures, such as Maximum Likelihood. Our aim is to construct a procedure that makes no explicit assumptions, but s...
متن کاملSelf-consistent estimation of censored quantile regression
The principle of self-consistency has been employed to estimate regression quantile with randomly censored response. It has been of great interest to study how the self-consistent estimation of censored regression quantiles is connected to the alternative martingale-based approach. In this talk, I will first present a new formulation of self-consistent censored regression quantiles based on sto...
متن کاملn–Uniformly Consistent Density Estimation in Nonparametric Regression Models
The paper introduces a √ n–consistent estimator of the probability density function of the response variable in a nonparametric regression model. The proposed estimator is shown to have a (uniform) asymptotic normal distribution, and it is computationally very simple to compute. A Monte Carlo experiment confirms our theoretical results, and an empirical application demonstrates its usefulness. ...
متن کاملConsistent Kernel Density Estimation with Non-Vanishing Bandwidth
Consistency of the kernel density estimator requires that the kernel bandwidth tends to zero as the sample size grows. In this paper we investigate the question of whether consistency is possible when the bandwidth is fixed, if we consider a more general class of weighted KDEs. To answer this question in the affirmative, we introduce the fixed-bandwidth KDE (fbKDE), obtained by solving a quadra...
متن کاملConsistent estimation of a convex density at the origin
Motivated by Hampel’s birds migration problem,Groeneboom, Jongbloed, and Wellner (2001b) established the asymptotic distribution theory for the nonparametric Least Squares and Maximum Likelihood estimators of a convex and decreasing density, g0, at a fixed point t0 > 0. However, estimation of the distribution function of the birds’ resting times involves estimation of g′ 0 at 0, a boundary poin...
