The concept of generalized cross-validation (GCV) is applied to modified total generalized variation (MTGV) regularization. Current implementations of the MTGV regularization rely on manual (or semi-manual) hyperparameter optimization,…

Tuning parameter selection is of critical importance for kernel ridge regression. To this date, data driven tuning method for divide-and-conquer kernel ridge regression (d-KRR) has been lacking in the literature, which limits the…

We analyze the performance of cross-validation (CV) in the density estimation framework with two purposes: (i) risk estimation and (ii) model selection. The main focus is given to the so-called leave-$p$-out CV procedure (Lpo), where $p$…
