چکیده
Abstract: We consider a semiparametric convolution model. We observe random variables having a distribution given by the convolution of some unknown density f and some partially known noise density g. In this work, g is assumed exponentially smooth with stable law having unknown selfsimilarity index s. In order to ensure identifiability of the model, we restrict our attention to polynomially smooth, Sobolev-type densities f , with smoothness parameter β. In this context, we first provide a consistent estimation procedure for s. This estimator is then plugged-into three different procedures: estimation of the unknown density f , of the functional ∫

Ja n 20 07 Adaptive procedures in convolution models with known or partially known noise distribution
In a convolution model, we observe random variables whose distribution is the convolution of some unknown density f and some known or partially known noise density g. We construct goodness-of-fit testing procedures, which are adaptive with respect to the smoothness parameter of unknown density f , and also (in some cases) to some unknown parameter of the noise density g. For known polynomially ...
متن کاملContinuous dependence on coefficients for stochastic evolution equations with multiplicative Levy Noise and monotone nonlinearity
Semilinear stochastic evolution equations with multiplicative L'evy noise are considered. The drift term is assumed to be monotone nonlinear and with linear growth. Unlike other similar works, we do not impose coercivity conditions on coefficients. We establish the continuous dependence of the mild solution with respect to initial conditions and also on coefficients. As corollaries of ...
متن کاملGoodness-of-fit testing and quadratic functional estimation from indirect observations
We consider the convolution model where i.i.d. random variables Xi having unknown density f are observed with additive i.i.d. noise, independent of the X’s. We assume that the density f belongs to either a Sobolev class or a class of supersmooth functions. The noise distribution is known and its characteristic function decays either polynomially or exponentially asymptotically. We consider the ...
متن کاملA gamma-distribution convolution model of 99mTc-MIBI thyroid time-activity curves
BACKGROUND The convolution approach to thyroid time-activity curve (TAC) data fitting with a gamma distribution convolution (GDC) TAC model following bolus intravenous injection is presented and applied to 99mTc-MIBI data. The GDC model is a convolution of two gamma distribution functions that simultaneously models the distribution and washout kinetics of the radiotracer. The GDC model was fitt...
متن کاملAsymptotic normality of the integrated square error of a density estimator in the convolution model
In this paper we consider a kernel estimator of a density in a convolution model and give a central limit theorem for its integrated square error (ISE). The kernel estimator is rather classical in minimax theory when the underlying density is recovered from noisy observations. The kernel is fixed and depends heavily on the distribution of the noise, supposed entirely known. The bandwidth is not...
