Semiparametric curve alignment and shift density estimation with application to neuronal data
Suppose we observe a large number of curves, all with identical, although unknown, shape, but with a different random shift. The objective is to estimate the individual time shifts and their distribution. Such an objective appears in several biological applications, in which the interest is in the estimation of the distribution of the elapsed time between repetitive pulses with a possibly low s...
متن کاملSemiparametric multivariate density estimation for positive data using copulas
In this paper we estimate density functions for positive multivariate data. We propose a semiparametric approach. The estimator combines gamma kernels or local linear kernels, also called boundary kernels, for the estimation of the marginal densities with parametric copulas to model the dependence. This semiparametric approach is robust both to the well-known boundary bias problem and the curse...
متن کاملPenalized semiparametric density estimation
In this article we propose a penalized likelihood approach for the semiparametric density model with parametric and nonparametric components. An efficient iterative procedure is proposed for estimation. Approximate generalized maximum likelihood criterion from Bayesian point of view is derived for selecting the smoothing parameter. The finite sample performance of the proposed estimation approa...
متن کاملImplementing Semiparametric Density Estimation
A semiparametric estimate of a density may be formed via the convex combination of a parametric and a nonparametric density estimate. It is shown that the some trimming is often necessary to obtain an appropriate proportion of
متن کاملMerging Information for Semiparametric Density Estimation
KONSTANTINOS FOKIANOS Abstra t. The density ratio model specifies that the likelihood ratio of m 1 probability density functions with respect to the m’th is of known parametric form without reference to any parametric model. We study the semiparametric inference problem related to the density ratio model by appealing to the methodology of empirical likelihood. The combined data from all the sam...
