We consider a continuous-time stochastic volatility model. The model contains a stationary volatility process, the multivariate density of the finite dimensional distributions of which we aim to estimate. We assume that we observe the…
This paper concerns a spectral estimation problem in which we want to find a spectral density function that is consistent with estimated second-order statistics. It is an inverse problem admitting multiple solutions, and selection of a…
We address the problem of classification when data are collected from two samples with measurement errors. This problem turns to be an inverse problem and requires a specific treatment. In this context, we investigate the minimax rates of…
We consider the problem of recovering a distribution function on the real line from observations additively contaminated with errors following the standard Laplace distribution. Assuming that the latent distribution is completely unknown…
We address the problem of estimating the difference between two probability densities. A naive approach is a two-step procedure of first estimating two densities separately and then computing their difference. However, such a two-step…
We relate disentanglement and decoherence rates in a pair of three-level atoms subjected to multi-local and collective pure dephasing noise acting in a preferred basis. The bipartite entanglement decay rate, as bounded from above by the…
We propose a novel approach for density estimation called histogram trend filtering. Our estimator arises from looking at surrogate Poisson model for counts of observations in a partition of the support of the data. We begin by showing…
The estimation of the ratio of two density probability functions is of great interest in many statistics fields, including causal inference. In this study, we develop an ensemble estimator of density ratios with a novel loss function based…
A new nonparametric estimator of a convex regression function in any dimension is proposed and its convergence properties are studied. We start by using any estimator of the regression function and we \emph{convexify} it by taking the…
In regularized risk minimization, the associated optimization problem becomes particularly difficult when both the loss and regularizer are nonsmooth. Existing approaches either have slow or unclear convergence properties, are restricted to…
This paper deals with the problem of estimating the delays and amplitudes of a weighted superposition of pulses, called stream of pulses. This problem is motivated by a variety of applications, such as ultrasound and radar. This paper shows…
This paper develops a density deconvolution estimator that assumes the density of interest is a member of the generalized skew-symmetric (GSS) family of distributions. Estimation occurs in two parts: a skewing function, as well as location…
We derive asymptotic normality of kernel type deconvolution estimators of the density, the distribution function at a fixed point, and of the probability of an interval. We consider the so called super smooth case where the characteristic…
Shuffled regression and unlinked regression represent intriguing challenges that have garnered considerable attention in many fields, including but not limited to ecological regression, multi-target tracking problems, image denoising, etc.…
We consider a circular deconvolution problem, in which the density $f$ of a circular random variable $X$ must be estimated nonparametrically based on an i.i.d. sample from a noisy observation $Y$ of $X$. The additive measurement error is…
The effect of uncertainties and noise on a quantity of interest (model output) is often better described by its probability density function (PDF) than by its moments. Although density estimation is a common task, the adequacy of…
Density level sets can be estimated using plug-in methods, excess mass algorithms or a hybrid of the two previous methodologies. The plug-in algorithms are based on replacing the unknown density by some nonparametric estimator, usually 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 $Y_{\bf{i}}$,…
In this paper, we study the gradient descent-ascent method for convex-concave saddle-point problems. We derive a new non-asymptotic global convergence rate in terms of distance to the solution set by using the semidefinite programming…
For highly skewed or fat-tailed distributions, mean or median-based methods often fail to capture the central tendencies in the data. Despite being a viable alternative, estimating the conditional mode given certain covariates (or mode…
