We derive nonparametric confidence intervals for the eigenvalues of the Hessian at modes of a density estimate. This provides information about the strength and shape of modes and can also be used as a significance test. We use a…

Several factors affect the structure of communities, including biological, physical and chemical phenomena, impacting the quantification of biodiversity, measured by diversity indexes such as Shannon's entropy. Then, once a point estimate…

We propose a coupled bootstrap (CB) method for the test error of an arbitrary algorithm that estimates the mean in a Poisson sequence, often called the Poisson means problem. The idea behind our method is to generate two carefully-designed…
