We study kernel least-squares estimation under a norm constraint. This form of regularisation is known as Ivanov regularisation and it provides better control of the norm of the estimator than the well-established Tikhonov regularisation.…

The algorithm of modified wavelet analysis is discussed. It is based on the weighted least squares approximation. Contrary to the Gaussian as a weight function, we propose to use a compact weight function. The accuracy estimates using the…

We analyze the accuracy of the discrete least-squares approximation of a function $u$ in multivariate polynomial spaces $\mathbb{P}_\Lambda:={\rm span} \{y\mapsto y^\nu \,: \, \nu\in \Lambda\}$ with $\Lambda\subset \mathbb{N}_0^d$ over the…

We propose an algorithm, called OEM (a.k.a. orthogonalizing EM), intended for var- ious least squares problems. The first step, named active orthogonization, orthogonalizes an arbi- trary regression matrix by elaborately adding more rows.…

The goal of this work is to fill a gap in [Yang, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl, 41 (2020), 1797--1825]. In that work, an approximation procedure was proposed for orthogonal low-rank tensor approximation; however, the approximation lower bound…

Likelihood-based procedures are a common way to estimate tail dependence parameters. They are not applicable, however, in non-differentiable models such as those arising from recent max-linear structural equation models. Moreover, they can…
