Unimodal regression using Bernstein-Schoenberg splines and penalties.
Research in the field of nonparametric shape constrained regression has been intensive. However, only few publications explicitly deal with unimodality although there is need for such methods in applications, for example, in dose-response analysis. In this article, we propose unimodal spline regression methods that make use of Bernstein-Schoenberg splines and their shape preservation property. ...
متن کاملSplines, Knots, and Penalties
Penalized splines have gained much popularity as a flexible tool for smoothing and semi-parametric models. Two approaches have been advocated: 1) use a B-spline basis, equally-spaced knots and difference penalties (Eilers and Marx, 1996) and 2) use truncated power functions, knots based on quantiles of the independent variable and a ridge penalty (Ruppert, Wand and Carroll, 2003). We compare th...
متن کاملUnimodal density estimation using Bernstein polynomials
The estimation of probability density functions is one of the fundamental aspects of any statistical inference. Many data analyses are based on an assumed family of parametric models, which are known to be unimodal (e.g., exponential family, etc.). Often a histogram suggests the unimodality of the underlying density function. Parametric assumptions, however, may not be adequate for many inferen...
متن کاملQuasi-interpolatory splines based on Schoenberg points
By using the Schoenberg points as quasi-interpolatory points, we achieve both generality and economy in contrast to previous sets, which achieve either generality or economy, but not both. The price we pay is a more complicated theory and weaker error bounds, although the order of convergence is unchanged. Applications to numerical integration are given and numerical examples show that the accu...
متن کاملStieltjes-Pick-Bernstein-Schoenberg and their connection to complete monotonicity
This paper is mainly a survey of published results. We recall the definition of positive definite and (conditionally) negative definite functions on abelian semigroups with involution, and we consider three main examples: Rk, [0,∞[k, N0–the first with the inverse involution and the two others with the identical involution. Schoenberg’s theorem explains the possibility of constructing rotation i...
