Empirical Likelihood-Based Inference for Functional Means with Application to Wearable Device Data
函数均值的经验似然推断及其可穿戴设备数据应用
Abstract This paper develops a nonparametric inference framework that is applicable to occupation time curves derived from wearable device data. These curves consider all activity levels within the range of device readings, which is preferable to the practice of classifying activity into discrete categories. Motivated by certain features of these curves, we introduce a powerful likelihood ratio approach to construct confidence bands and compare functional means. Notably, our…
