Deconvolution with Supersmooth Distributions

چکیده

The desire to recover the unknown density when data are contaminated with errors leads to nonparametric deconvolution problems. Optimal global rates of convergence are found under the weighted Lp-loss (1 $ p $ 00). It appears that the optimal rates of convergence are extremely slow for supersmooth error distributions. To overcome the difficulty, we examine how large the noise level can be for deconvolution to be feasible, and for the deconvolution estimate to be as good as the ordinary density estimate. It is shown that if noise level is not too large, nonparametric Gaussian deconvolution can still be practical. Several simulation studies are also presented. oAbbreviated title.

Minimax rates of convergence for Wasserstein deconvolution with supersmooth errors in any dimension

The subject of this paper is the estimation of a probability measure on R from data observed with an additive noise, under the Wasserstein metric of order p (with p ≥ 1). We assume that the distribution of the errors is known and belongs to a class of supersmooth distributions, and we give optimal rates of convergence for the Wasserstein metric of order p. In particular, we show how to use the ...

Weak convergence of the supremum distance for supersmooth kernel deconvolution

We derive the asymptotic distribution of the supremum distance of the deconvolution kernel density estimator to its expectation for certain supersmooth deconvolution problems. It turns out that the asymptotics are essentially different from the corresponding results for ordinary smooth deconvolution.

Deconvolution with Estimated Characteristic Function of the Errors

We study the following model of deconvolution Y = X+ε with i.i.d. observations Y1, . . . , Yn and ε−1, . . . , ε−M . The (Xj)1≤j≤n are i.i.d. with density f , independent of the εj . The aim of the paper is to estimate f without knowing the density fε of the εj . We first define an estimator, for which we provide bounds for the pointwise and the integrated L-risk. We consider ordinary smooth an...

Optimal Spherical Deconvolution

This paper addresses the issue of optimal deconvolution density estimation on the 2-sphere. Indeed, by using the transitive group action of the rotation matrices on the 2-dimensional unit sphere, rotational errors can be introduced analogous to the Euclidean case. The resulting density turns out to be convolution in the Lie group sense and so the statistical problem is to recover the true under...

Quadratic functional estimation in view of minimax goodness-of-fit testing from noisy data

We consider the convolution model Y random variables X i having common unknown density f are observed with an additive i.i.d. noise, independent of X s. We assume that the density f belongs to a smoothness class, has a characteristic function described either by a polynomial |u| −β , β > 1/2 (Sobolev class) or by an exponential exp(−α|u| r), α, r > 0 (called supersmooth), as |u| → ∞. The noise ...
