The multiplicative censoring model introduced in Vardi [Biometrika 76 (1989) 751--761] is an incomplete data problem whereby two independent samples from the lifetime distribution $G$, $\mathcal{X}_m=(X_1,...,X_m)$ and…
Kernel density estimation is a widely used nonparametric approach to estimate an unknown distribution. Recent work in Bayesian predictive inference has considered stochastic processes formed by specifying the predictive distribution for the…
We study the density estimation problem with observations generated by certain dynamical systems that admit a unique underlying invariant Lebesgue density. Observations drawn from dynamical systems are not independent and moreover, usual…
Kernel density estimators with circular data have been studied extensively for decades, as they allow flexible estimations even when the shape of the underlying density is complex. Many recent studies have examined bias correction methods;…
We provide a theoretical foundation for non-parametric estimation of functions of random variables using kernel mean embeddings. We show that for any continuous function $f$, consistent estimators of the mean embedding of a random variable…
In numerous applications data are observed at random times and an estimated graph of the spectral density may be relevant for characterizing and explaining phenomena. By using a wavelet analysis, one derives a nonparametric estimator of the…
The paper discusses the estimation of a continuous density function of the target random field $X_{\bf{i}}$, $\bf{i}\in \mathbb {Z}^N$ which is contaminated by measurement errors. In particular, the observed random field $Y_{\bf{i}}$,…
We introduce a general method to prove uniform in bandwidth consistency of kernel-type function estimators. Examples include the kernel density estimator, the Nadaraya-Watson regression estimator and the conditional empirical process. Our…
Consider the semiparametric transformation model $\Lambda_{\theta_o}(Y)=m(X)+\epsilon$, where $\theta_o$ is an unknown finite dimensional parameter, the functions $\Lambda_{\theta_o}$ and $m$ are smooth, $\epsilon$ is independent of $X$,…
In this paper, we study the behavior of a kernel estimator of the regression function in the right censored model with $\alpha$-mixing data . The uniform strong consistency over a real compact set of the estimate is established along with a…
Given a sample from a discretely observed compound Poisson process, we consider estimation of the density of the jump sizes. We propose a kernel type nonparametric density estimator and study its asymptotic properties. An order bound for…
We study the Lp-integrated risk of some classical estimators of the density, when the observations are drawn from a strictly stationary sequence. The results apply to a large class of sequences, which can be non-mixing in the sense of…
Semicontinuous outcomes occur frequently in health services, insurance, and cost studies. Standard nonparametric density estimators are not well suited to such data because they do not naturally accommodate the mixed structure, the…
Given a sample from some unknown continuous density $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$, we construct adaptive confidence bands that are honest for all densities in a "generic" subset of the union of $t$-H\"older balls, $0<t\le r$, where $r$ is a…
Let $\mathrm{d}(A)$ be the asymptotic density (if it exists) of a sequence of integers $A$. For any real numbers $0\leq\alpha\leq\beta\leq 1$, we solve the question of the existence of a sequence $A$ of positive integers such that…
Variable kernel density estimation allows the approximation of a probability density by the mean of differently stretched and rotated kernels centered at given sampling points $y_n\in\mathbb{R}^d,\ n=1,\dots,N$. Up to now, the choice of the…
We construct a density estimator and an estimator of the distribution function in the uniform deconvolution model. The estimators are based on inversion formulas and kernel estimators of the density of the observations and its derivative.…
Consider a random vector (X, T), where X is d-dimensional and T is one-dimensional. We suppose that the random variable T is subject to random right censoring and satisfies the $\alpha$-mixing property. The aim of this paper is to study the…
We study the worst case error of kernel density estimates via subset approximation. A kernel density estimate of a distribution is the convolution of that distribution with a fixed kernel (e.g. Gaussian kernel). Given a subset (i.e. a point…
We derive estimators of the density of the event times of current status data. The estimators are derived for the situations where the distribution of the observation times is known and where this distribution is unknown. The density…
