The histogram is a key method for visualizing data and estimating the underlying probability distribution. Incorrect conclusions about the data result from over or under-binning. A new method based on the Shannon entropy of the histogram…
Density estimation is a fundamental technique employed in various fields to model and to understand the underlying distribution of data. The primary objective of density estimation is to estimate the probability density function of a random…
Consider the problem when $X_1,X_2,..., X_n$ are distributed on a circle following an unknown distribution $F$ on $S^1$. In this article we have consider the absolute general set-up where the density can have local features such as…
The estimation of cumulative distribution functions (CDF) and probability density functions (PDF) is a fundamental practice in applied statistics. However, challenges often arise when dealing with data arranged in grouped intervals. In this…
We revise and extend the stochastic approach to cumulative weak lensing (hereafter the sGL method) first introduced in Ref. [1]. Here we include a realistic halo mass function and density profiles to model the distribution of mass between…
We present a novel approach for reconstructing the projected mass distribution of clusters of galaxies from sparse and noisy weak gravitational lensing shear data. The reconstructions are regularised using knowledge gained from numerical…
We present a theoretical study of galaxy spin correlation statistics, with detailed technical derivations. We also find an expression for the spin-density cross-correlation, and apply that to the Tully galaxy catalog. The observational…
The histogram is widely used as a simple, exploratory display of data, but it is usually not clear how to choose the number and size of bins. We construct a confidence set of distribution functions that optimally address the two main tasks…
In the context of functional data analysis, probability density functions as non-negative functions are characterized by specific properties of scale invariance and relative scale which enable to represent them with the unit integral…
We present $\texttt{BHM}$, a tool for restoring a smooth function from a sampled histogram using the bin hierarchy method. The theoretical background of the method is presented in [arXiv:1707.07625]. The code automatically generates a…
We formulate an optimization problem to estimate probability densities in the context of multidimensional problems that are sampled with uneven probability. It considers detector sensitivity as an heterogeneous density and takes advantage…
We present a numerical technique to compute the gravitational lensing induced by simulated haloes. It relies on a 2D-Tree domain decomposition in the lens plane combined with a description of N-Body particles as extended clouds with a…
Space-efficient streaming estimation of quantiles in massive datasets is a fundamental problem with numerous applications in data monitoring and analysis. While theoretical research led to optimal algorithms, such as the Greenwald-Khanna…
Most density based stream clustering algorithms separate the clustering process into an online and offline component. Exact summarized statistics are being employed for defining micro-clusters or grid cells during the online stage followed…
We present a new theoretical population synthesis model (the Galaxy Model) to examine and deal with large amounts of data from surveys of the Milky Way and to decipher the present and past structure and history of our own Galaxy. We assume…
The histogram method is a powerful non-parametric approach for estimating the probability density function of a continuous variable. But the construction of a histogram, compared to the parametric approaches, demands a large number of…
In a previous paper we investigated means for constraining the mass distribution of cluster galaxies by weak lensing. We concluded that a comprehensive method should treat the lensing effects of individual cluster galaxies and those…
We propose a method to efficiently compute tomographic projections of a 3D volume represented by a linear combination of shifted B-splines. To do so, we propose a ray-tracing algorithm that computes 3D line integrals with arbitrary…
Calibrating neural networks is of utmost importance when employing them in safety-critical applications where the downstream decision making depends on the predicted probabilities. Measuring calibration error amounts to comparing two…
We present a new galaxy cluster lens modeling approach, hybrid-Lenstool, that is implemented in the publicly available modeling software Lenstool. hybrid-Lenstool combines a parametric approach to model the core of the cluster, and a…
