A Nonparametric Regression Spectrum : Estimation, Asymptotic Properties and Data Analysis
Classical spectral analysis in statistics considers decomposition of stationary time series into sinusoidal components. The autocovariance and the spectrum are fundamental elements for analyzing a given time series both in time and frequency domain. However, in practice one frequently observes nonstationary time series. In order to apply spectral analysis to these processes, an extension of the...
متن کاملThe Root-Unroot Algorithm for Density Estimation as Implemented via Wavelet Block Thresholding
We propose and implement a density estimation procedure which begins by turning density estimation into a nonparametric regression problem. This regression problem is created by binning the original observations into many small size bins, and by then applying a suitable form of root transformation to the binned data counts. In principle many common nonparametric regression estimators could then...
متن کاملAdaptive Variance Function Estimation in Heteroscedastic Nonparametric Regression
We consider a wavelet thresholding approach to adaptive variance function estimation in heteroscedastic nonparametric regression. A data-driven estimator is constructed by applying wavelet thresholding to the squared first-order differences of the observations. We show that the variance function estimator is nearly optimally adaptive to the smoothness of both the mean and variance functions. Th...
متن کاملWavelet thresholding techniques for power spectrum estimation
Estimation of the power spectrum S( f ) of a stationary random process can be viewed as a nonparametric statistical estimation problem. We introduce a nonparametric approach based on a wavelet representation for the logarithm of the unknown S( f ). This approach offers the ability to capture statistically significant components of lnS( f ) at different resolution levels and guarantees nonnegati...
متن کاملData-driven wavelet-Fisz methodology for nonparametric function estimation
We propose a wavelet-based technique for the nonparametric estimation of functions contaminated with noise whose mean and variance are linked via a possibly unknown variance function. Our method, termed the data-driven wavelet-Fisz technique, consists of estimating the variance function via a Nadaraya-Watson estimator, and then performing a wavelet thresholding procedure which uses the estimate...
