Universal pointwise selection rule in multivariate function estimation
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we study the problem of pointwise estimation of a multivariate function. We develop a general pointwise estimation procedure that is based on selection of estimators from a large parameterized collection. An upper bound on the pointwise risk is established and it is shown that the proposed selection procedure specialized for different collections of estimators leads to minimax and adaptive minimax estimators in various settings.

Adaptive estimation in the functional nonparametric regression model
In this paper, we consider nonparametric regression estimation when the predictor is a functional random variable (typically a curve) and the response is scalar. Starting from a classical collection of kernel estimates, the bias-variance decomposition of a pointwise risk is investigated to understand what can be expected at best from adaptive estimation. We propose a fully data-driven local ban...
متن کاملBandwidth Choice for Nonparametric Classification
It is shown that, for kernel-based classification with univariate distributions and two populations, optimal bandwidth choice has a dichotomous character. If the two densities cross at just one point, where their curvatures have the same signs, then minimum Bayes risk is achieved using bandwidths which are an order of magnitude larger than those which minimize pointwise estimation error. On the...
متن کاملThe Gram-Charlier A Series based Extended Rule-of-Thumb for Bandwidth Selection in Univariate and Multivariate Kernel Density Estimations
The article derives a novel Gram-Charlier A (GCA) Series based Extended Rule-of-Thumb (ExROT) for bandwidth selection in Kernel Density Estimation (KDE). There are existing various bandwidth selection rules achieving minimization of the Asymptotic Mean Integrated Square Error (AMISE) between the estimated probability density function (PDF) and the actual PDF. The rules differ in a way to estima...
متن کاملExact Constants for Pointwise Adaptive Estimation under the Riesz transform
We consider nonparametric estimation of a multivariate function and its partial derivatives at a fixed point when the Riesz transform of the function is observed in Gaussian white noise. We assume that the unknown function belongs to some Sobolev class and construct an estimation procedure which achieves the best asymptotic minimax risk when the smoothness of the function is unknown. Mathematic...
متن کاملPOINTWISE CONVERGENCE TOPOLOGY AND FUNCTION SPACES IN FUZZY ANALYSIS
We study the space of all continuous fuzzy-valued functions from a space $X$ into the space of fuzzy numbers $(mathbb{E}sp{1},dsb{infty})$ endowed with the pointwise convergence topology. Our results generalize the classical ones for continuous real-valued functions. The field of applications of this approach seems to be large, since the classical case allows many known devices to be fi...
