چکیده
To tie up the discussion on the topic op estimation, more specifically spectral estimation, we derive here some tighter properties related to the direct use of the Fourier Transform, as contrasted to the properties of parametric methods such as the Levinson-Schur algorithm, where parameters of a model are estimated. We shall obtain a better insight in how well the Fourier Transform on discrete stochastic time series is capable to estimate the Power Spectral Density Function (PSDF). In this section we follow the book of Stoica and Moses as mentioned, because it gives a more succinct description of the topic than can be found in the book of Porat. The discussion also gives a nice introduction to the topic of 'windows' used to preprocess the data so that the quality of the spectral estimation is enhanced to some extent.

Stochastic Non-Parametric Frontier Analysis
In this paper we develop an approach that synthesizes the best features of the two main methods in the estimation of production efficiency. Specically, our approach first allows for statistical noise, similar to Stochastic frontier analysis, and second, it allows modeling multiple-inputs-multiple-outputs technologies without imposing parametric assumptions on production relationship, similar to...
متن کاملDetermination of height of urban buildings based on non-parametric estimation of signal spectrum in SAR data tomography
Nowadays, the TomoSAR technique has been able to overcome the limitations of radar interferometry techniques in separating multiple scatterers of pixels. By extending the principles of virtual aperture in the elevation direction, these techniques pay much attention in the analysis of urban challenging areas. Despite the expectation of interference of the distribution of buildings with different...
متن کاملTHE COMPARISON OF TWO METHOD NONPARAMETRIC APPROACH ON SMALL AREA ESTIMATION (CASE: APPROACH WITH KERNEL METHODS AND LOCAL POLYNOMIAL REGRESSION)
Small Area estimation is a technique used to estimate parameters of subpopulations with small sample sizes. Small area estimation is needed in obtaining information on a small area, such as sub-district or village. Generally, in some cases, small area estimation uses parametric modeling. But in fact, a lot of models have no linear relationship between the small area average and the covariat...
متن کاملNotes On Nonparametric Density Estimation
Univariate Density Estimation via Numerical Derivatives Consider the problem of estimating the density function f(x) of a scalar, continuously-distributed i.i.d. sequence xi at a particular point x. If the density f is in a known parametric family (e.g., Gaussian), estimation of the density reduces to estimation of the finite-dimensional parameters that characterize that particular density in t...

متن کاملA Simple Approach to the Parametric Estimation of Potentially Nonstationary Diffusions
A simple and robust approach is proposed for the parametric estimation of scalar homogeneous stochastic di¤erential equations. We specify a parametric class of di¤usions and estimate the parameters of interest by minimizing criteria based on the integrated squared di¤erence between kernel estimates of the drift and di¤usion functions and their parametric counterparts. The procedure does not req...
