Abstract:

Upscaling based on the bandwidth of the kernel function is a flexible approach to upscale the data because the cells will be coarse-based on variability. The intensity of the coarsening of cells in this method can be controlled with bandwidth. In a smooth variability region, a large number of cells will be merged, and vice versa, they will remain fine with severe variability. Bandwidth variation can be effective in upscaling results. Therefore, determining the optimal bandwidth in this method is essential. For each bandwidth, the upscaled model has a number of upscaled blocks and an upscaling error. Obviously, higher thresholds or bandwidths cause a lower number of upscaled blocks and a higher sum of squares error (SSE). On the other hand, using the smallest bandwidth, the upscaled model will remain in a fine scale, and there will be practically no upscaling. In this work, different approaches are used to determine the optimal bandwidth or threshold for upscaling. Investigation of SSE changes, the intersection of two charts, namely SSE and the number of upscaled block charts, and the changes of SSE values versus bandwidths, are among these approaches. In this particular case, if the goal of upscaling is to minimize the upscaling error, the intersection method will obtain a better result. Conversely, if the purpose of upscaling is computational cost reduction, the SSE variation approach will be more appropriate for the threshold setting.

UNIFORM IN BANDWIDTH CONSISTENCY OF KERNEL - TYPE FUNCTION ESTIMATORS By

We introduce a general method to prove uniform in bandwidth consistency of kernel-type function estimators. Examples include the kernel density estimator, the Nadaraya–Watson regression estimator and the conditional empirical process. Our results may be useful to establish uniform consistency of data-driven bandwidth kernel-type function estimators.

Optimal Buffer and Bandwidth Allocation using Effective Bandwidth

We consider a single node which multiplexes a large number of traffic sources. We restrict ourselves to consideration of aggregates of i.i.d. flows that can modelled using effective bandwidth results. We are concerned with the amount of buffer and bandwidth that should be allocated to this aggregate, under a maximum overflow probability constraint. Unlike previous approaches which assume that t...

On the bandwidth of Mobius graphs

Bandwidth labelling is a well known research area in graph theory. We provide a new proof that the bandwidth of Mobius ladder is 4, if it is not a $K_{4}$, and investigate the bandwidth of a wider class of Mobius graphs of even strips.

Fast optimal bandwidth selection for kernel density estimation

We propose a computationally efficient 2−exact approximation algorithm for univariate Gaussian kernel based density derivative estimation that reduces the computational complexity from O(MN) to linear O(N +M). We apply the procedure to estimate the optimal bandwidth for kernel density estimation. We demonstrate the speedup achieved on this problem using the ”solve-the-equation plug-in” method, ...

Optimal bandwidth selection for semi-recursive kernel regression estimators

In this paper we propose an automatic selection of the bandwidth of the semi-recursive kernel estimators of a regression function defined by the stochastic approximation algorithm. We showed that, using the selected bandwidth and some special stepsizes, the proposed semi-recursive estimators will be very competitive to the nonrecursive one in terms of estimation error but much better in terms o...
