We present a new adaptive kernel density estimator based on linear diffusion processes. The proposed estimator builds on existing ideas for adaptive smoothing by incorporating information from a pilot density estimate. In addition, we…

The aim of this article is to propose a novel kernel estimator of the baseline function in a general high-dimensional Cox model, for which we derive non-asymptotic rates of convergence. To construct our estimator, we first estimate the…

We construct a family of estimators for a regression function based on a sample following a qdistribution. Our approach is nonparametric, using kernel methods built from operations that leverage the properties of q-calculus. Furthermore,…

Hypothesis tests in models whose dimension far exceeds the sample size can be formulated much like the classical studentized tests only after the initial bias of estimation is removed successfully. The theory of debiased estimators can be…

There is an intense and partly recent literature focussing on the problem of selecting the bandwidth parameter for kernel density estimators. Available methods are largely `very nonparametric', in the sense of not requiring any knowledge…

In finite mixture models, apart from underlying mixing measure, true kernel density function of each subpopulation in the data is, in many scenarios, unknown. Perhaps the most popular approach is to choose some kernel functions that we…
