The class of dual $\phi$-divergence estimators (introduced in Broniatowski and Keziou (2009) is explored with respect to robustness through the influence function approach. For scale and location models, this class is investigated in terms…

Robust inference based on the minimization of statistical divergences has proved to be a useful alternative to classical techniques based on maximum likelihood and related methods. Basu et al. (1998) introduced the density power divergence…

Robust inference based on the minimization of statistical divergences has proved to be a useful alternative to the classical maximum likelihood based techniques. Recently Ghosh et al. (2013) proposed a general class of divergence measures…

M-estimators offer simple robust alternatives to the maximum likelihood estimator. Much of the robustness literature, however, has focused on the problems of location, location-scale and regression estimation rather than on estimation of…

This paper introduces a new superfamily of divergences that is similar in spirit to the S-divergence family introduced by Ghosh et al. (2013). This new family serves as an umbrella that contains the logarithmic power divergence family…

Minimum divergence estimators provide a natural choice of estimators in a statistical inference problem. Different properties of various families of these divergence measures such as Hellinger distance, power divergence, density power…

In this paper, an alternative approximation to the innovation method is introduced for the parameter estimation of diffusion processes from partial and noisy observations. This is based on a convergent approximation to the first two…

The aim of this paper is to introduce new statistical criterions for estimation, suitable for inference in models with common continuous support. This proposal is in the direct line of a renewed interest for divergence based inference tools…

Statistical inference based on divergence measures have a long history. Recently, Maji, Ghosh and Basu (2014) have introduced a general family of divergences called the logarithmic super divergence (LSD) family. This family acts as a…

Zhang (2019) presented a general estimation approach based on the Gaussian distribution for general parametric models where the likelihood of the data is difficult to obtain or unknown, but the mean and variance-covariance matrix are known.…

Change-point detection methods are proposed for the case of temporary failures, or transient changes, when an unexpected disorder is ultimately followed by a readjustment and return to the initial state. A base distribution of the…

We consider semiparametric moment condition models invariant to transformation groups. The parameter of interest is estimated by minimum empirical divergence approach, introduced by Broniatowski and Keziou (2012). It is shown that the…

R\'enyi divergences play a pivotal role in information theory, statistics, and machine learning. While several estimators of these divergences have been proposed in the literature with their consistency properties established and minimax…

Four estimators of the directed information rate between a pair of jointly stationary ergodic finite-alphabet processes are proposed, based on universal probability assignments. The first one is a Shannon--McMillan--Breiman type estimator,…

Bayesian and frequentist inference are two fundamental paradigms in statistical estimation. Bayesian methods treat hypotheses as random variables, incorporating priors and updating beliefs via Bayes' theorem, whereas frequentist methods…

This paper investigates the large sample properties of local regression distribution estimators, which include a class of boundary adaptive density estimators as a prime example. First, we establish a pointwise Gaussian large sample…

The paper considers two-phase random design linear regression models. The errors and the regressors are stationary long-range dependent Gaussian. The regression parameters, the scale parameters and the change-point are estimated using a…

We present \textit{universal} estimators for the statistical mean, variance, and scale (in particular, the interquartile range) under pure differential privacy. These estimators are universal in the sense that they work on an arbitrary,…

Learning the differential statistical dependency network between two contexts is essential for many real-life applications, mostly in the high dimensional low sample regime. In this paper, we propose a novel differential network estimator…

Semiparametric discrete choice models are widely used in a variety of practical applications. While these models are point identified in the presence of continuous covariates, they can become partially identified when covariates are…
