We present an expanded expository account of the $K$-moment problem for polynomial algebras over \(\R^d\), with special emphasis on compact basic closed semialgebraic sets. The central question is to characterize those linear functionals on…

We consider the problem of learning a classifier from observed functional data. Here, each data-point takes the form of a single time-series and contains numerous features. Assuming that each such series comes with a binary label, the…

We consider univariate distributions with finite moments of all positive orders. The moment problem is to determine whether or not a given distribution is uniquely determined by the sequence of its moments. There is a huge literature on…

The variational local moment approach (V-LMA), being a modification of the method due to Logan {\it et al}., is presented here. The existence of local moments is taken from the outset and their values are determined through variational…

We consider a generalized method of moments framework in which a part of the data vector is missing for some units in a completely unrestricted, potentially endogenous way. In this setup, the parameters of interest are usually only…

The aim of this paper is to study the full $K-$moment problem for measures supported on some particular non-linear subsets $K$ of an infinite dimensional vector space. We focus on the case of random measures, that is $K$ is a subset of all…

The realizability problem is a well-known problem in the analysis of complex systems, which can be modeled as an infinite-dimensional moment problem. More precisely, as a truncated $K-$moment problem where $K$ is the space of all possible…
