平滑单调密度与单峰密度的极大似然估计AI 解读

We study the nonparametric estimation of univariate monotone and unimodal densities usingthe maximum smoothed likelihood approach. The monotone estimator is the derivative of the least concave majorant of the distribution correspondingto a kernel estimator.We prove that the mapping on distributions $\Phi$ with density $\varphi$, $$\varphi \mapsto \text{the derivative of the least concave majorant of $\Phi},$$ is a contraction in all $L^P$ norms $(1 \leq p \leq \infty)$, and…

Good 非参数最大似然密度估计量的最优收敛率AI 解读

We study maximum penalized likelihood density estimation using the first roughness penalty functional of Good. We prove a simple pointwise comparison result with a kernel estimator based on the two-sided exponential kernel. This leads to $L^1$ convergence results similar to those for kernel estimators. We also prove Hellinger distance bounds for the roughness penalized estimator.

非参数反卷积的非线性平滑EM密度估计与自动平滑选择AI 解读

We study a nonparametric deconvolution density estimation problem. The estimator is obtained by an EM algorithm for a smoothed maximum likelihood estimation problem, which has a unique continuous solution. We present an implementation of the procedure incorporating a data-driven discrepancy principle for selecting the smoothing parameter. Simulations illustrate the good properties of the resulting estimator when the unknown distribution is smooth and has regularly varying…

逆问题中的最大平滑似然密度估计AI 解读

We consider the problem of estimating a pdf $f$ from samples $X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n$ of a random variable with pdf $\mathscr{K}f$, where $\mathscr{K}$ is a compact integral operator. We employ a maximum smoothed likelihood formalism inspired by a nonlinearly smoothed version of the EMS algorithm of Silverman, Jones, Wilson and Nychka. We show that this nonlinearly smoothed algorithm is itself an EM algorithm, which helps explain the strong convergence properties of the…
