We present a notion of a random toric surface modeled on a notion of a random graph. We then study some threshold phenomena related to the smoothness of the resulting surfaces.
We consider the problem of threshold estimation for autoregressive time series with a "space switching" in the situation, when the regression is nonlinear and the innovations have a smooth, possibly non Gaussian, probability density.…
We investigate invariant random fields on the sphere using a new type of spherical wavelets, called needlets. These are compactly supported in frequency and enjoy excellent localization properties in real space, with quasi-exponentially…
We investigate minimax testing for detecting local signals or linear combinations of such signals when only indirect data is available. Naturally, in the presence of noise, signals that are too small cannot be reliably detected. In a…
Let $\{X_n: n\in \N\}$ be a linear process with density function $f(x)\in L^2(\R)$. We study wavelet density estimation of $f(x)$. Under some regular conditions on the characteristic function of innovations, we achieve, based on the number…
Separating a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) from noise is a challenging statistical task. One approach to establishing a detection criterion for the SGWB is using Bayesian evidence. If the evidence ratio (Bayes factor)…
The modeling of intrinsic noise in pulsar timing residual data is of crucial importance for Gravitational Wave (GW) detection and pulsar timing (astro)physics in general. The noise budget in pulsars is a collection of several well studied…
We estimate the degree of squeezing possible in gravitational waves due to nonlinear gravitational effects in the weakly perturbative regime. Using the predicted amplitude ratios for higher harmonic generation in the ringdown phase of a…
Despite the broad application of the analytic wavelet transform (AWT), a systematic statistical characterization of its magnitude and phase as inhomogeneous random fields on the time-frequency domain when the input is a random process…
Numerical relativity (NR) enables the study of physics in strong and dynamical gravitational fields and provides predictions for the gravitational-wave signals produced by merging black holes. Despite the impressive accuracy of modern…
Precision timing of highly stable milli-second pulsars is a promising technique for the detection of very low frequency sources of gravitational waves. In any single pulsar, a stochastic gravitational wave signal appears as an additional…
We consider the problem of estimating the predictive density of future observations from a non-parametric regression model. The density estimators are evaluated under Kullback--Leibler divergence and our focus is on establishing the exact…
This paper is concerned with the estimation of the period of an unknown periodic function in Gaussian white noise. A class of estimators of the period is constructed by means of a penalized maximum likelihood method. A second-order…
Most results in nonparametric regression theory are developed only for the case of additive noise. In such a setting many smoothing techniques including wavelet thresholding methods have been developed and shown to be highly adaptive. In…
It is difficult to choose detection thresholds for tests of non-stationarity that assume {\em a priori} a noise model if the data is statistically uncharacterized to begin with. This is a potentially serious problem when an automated…
The problem of known signal detection in Additive White Gaussian Noise is considered. In this paper a new detection algorithm based on Discrete Wavelet Transform pre-processing and threshold comparison is introduced. Current approaches…
The purpose of the current Letter is to give some relations between gravitational lensing in the strong-deflection limit and the frequencies of the quasinormal modes of spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat black holes. On the one…
The minimum mean square error of the estimation of a non Gaussian signal where observed from an additive white Gaussian noise channel's output, is analyzed. First, a quite general time-continuous channel model is assumed for which the…
This paper develops intrinsic wavelet denoising methods for surfaces of Hermitian positive definite matrices, with in mind the application to nonparametric estimation of the time-varying spectral matrix of a multivariate locally stationary…
We consider the problem of mean estimation assuming only finite variance. We study a new class of mean estimators constructed by integrating over random noise applied to a soft-truncated empirical mean estimator. For appropriate choices of…
