Adaptive density estimation for stationary processes

Statistics Theory 2009-09-08 v1 Statistics Theory

Abstract

We propose an algorithm to estimate the common density ss of a stationary process X1,...,XnX_1,...,X_n. We suppose that the process is either β\beta or τ\tau-mixing. We provide a model selection procedure based on a generalization of Mallows' CpC_p and we prove oracle inequalities for the selected estimator under a few prior assumptions on the collection of models and on the mixing coefficients. We prove that our estimator is adaptive over a class of Besov spaces, namely, we prove that it achieves the same rates of convergence as in the i.i.d framework.
