非参数工具变量回归中泛函的自适应估计AI 解读

We consider the problem of estimating the value ℓ ( ϕ ) of a linear functional, where the structural function ϕ models a nonparametric relationship in presence of instrumental variables. We propose a plug-in estimator which is based on a dimension reduction technique and additional thresholding. It is shown that this estimator is consistent and can attain the minimax optimal rate of convergence under additional regularity conditions. This, however, requires an optimal choice…

非参数工具变量回归中含噪非线性算子方程的迭代估计AI 解读

This paper discusses the solution of nonlinear integral equations with noisy integral kernels as they appear in nonparametric instrumental regression. We propose a regularized Newton-type iteration and establish convergence and convergence rate results. A particular emphasis is on instrumental regression models where the usual conditional mean assumption is replaced by a stronger independence assumption. We demonstrate for the case of a binary instrument that our approach…

自适应函数型线性回归AI 解读

We consider the estimation of the slope function in functional linear regression, where scalar responses are modeled in dependence of random functions. Cardot and Johannes [J. Multivariate Anal. 101 (2010) 395–408] have shown that a thresholded projection estimator can attain up to a constant minimax-rates of convergence in a general framework which allows us to cover the prediction problem with respect to the mean squared prediction error as well as the estimation of the…

非参数工具变量回归中的惩罚识别与估计AI 解读

The nonparametric estimation of a regression function from conditional moment restrictions involving instrumental variables is considered. The rate of convergence of penalized estimators is studied in the case where the regression function is not identified from the conditional moment restriction. We also study the gain of modifying the penalty in the estimation, considering derivatives in the penalty. We analyze the effect of this modification on the identification of the…

未知算子的病态逆问题收敛率AI 解读

This paper studies the estimation of a nonparametric function ϕ from the inverse problem r = Tϕ given estimates of the function r and of the linear transform T . We show that rates of convergence of the estimator are driven by two types of assumptions expressed in a single Hilbert scale. The two assumptions quantify the prior regularity of ϕ and the prior link existing between T and the Hilbert scale. The approach provides a unified framework that allows us to compare…

误差分布未知时的反卷积AI 解读

We consider the problem of estimating a density fX using a sample Y1, …, Yn from fY=fX⋆fε, where fε is an unknown density. We assume that an additional sample ε1, …, εm from fε is observed. Estimators of fX and its derivatives are constructed by using nonparametric estimators of fY and fε and by applying a spectral cut-off in the Fourier domain. We derive the rate of convergence of the estimators in case of a known and unknown error density fε, where it is assumed that fX…
