Improving point and interval estimators of monotone functions by rearrangement
通过重排改进单调函数的点估计与区间估计
Suppose that a target function is monotonic and an available original estimate of this target function is not monotonic. Rearrangements, univariate and multivariate, transform the original estimate to a monotonic estimate that always lies closer in common metrics to the target function. Furthermore, suppose an original confidence interval, which covers the target function with probability at least 1-α, is defined by an upper and lower endpoint functions that are not…
