Dose-response estimation by smoothing and area under the curve
Many current dose-response methods assume a parametric shape of some form and do not accommodate comparisons between methods. Motivated by a need to be able to compare dose-response curves without assuming a parametric shape to the dose-response curve, we applied our technique to model them by non-parametric smoothing methods and also estimate area under the curves. Given that we do not know th...
متن کاملEstimating Semiparametric Arch (∞) Models by Kernel Smoothing Methods
We investigate a class of semiparametric ARCH(∞) models that includes as a special case the partially nonparametric (PNP) model introduced by Engle and Ng (1993) and which allows for both flexible dynamics and flexible function form with regard to the 'news impact' function. We propose an estimation method that is based on kernel smoothing and profiled likelihood. We establish the distribution ...
متن کاملIntegral approximation by kernel smoothing
where f̂ is the classical kernel estimator of the density of X1. This result is striking because it speeds up traditional rates, in root n, derived from the central limit theorem when f̂ = f . Although this paper highlights some applications, we mainly address theoretical issues related to the later result. We derive upper bounds for the rate of convergence in probability. These bounds depend on ...
متن کاملKernel Probability Density Estimation Methods
S. Towers State University of New York at Stony Brook Abstract Kernel Probability Density Estimation techniques are fast growing in popularity in the particle physics community. This note gives an overview of these techniques, and compares their signal/background discrimination performance to that of an artificial neural network.
متن کاملSilhouette Smoothing by Boundary Curve Interpolation
Conspicuous and visually unpleasant polygonal silhouettes are often produced when rendering a polyhedral approximation (i.e. a polygonal mesh) of a smooth surface model, regardless whatever shading method is used to improve the appearance of the interior region. We present in this paper a technique for displaying a coarse polygonal mesh with smooth silhouette. Unlike other existing methods that...
