多样本有偏抽样模型下的单调密度估计AI 解读

We study the nonparametric estimation of a decreasing density function $g_{0}$ in a general $s$-sample biased sampling model with weight (or bias) functions $w_{i}$ for $i=1,\ldots,s$. The determination of the monotone maximum likelihood estimator $\hat{g}_{n}$ and its asymptotic distribution, except for the case when $s=1$, has been long missing in the literature due to certain nonstandard structures of the likelihood function, such as nonseparability and a lack of strictly…

通过经验平衡校准加权实现平均处理效应的全局有效非参数推断AI 解读

Summary The estimation of average treatment effects based on observational data is extremely important in practice and has been studied by generations of statisticians under different frameworks. Existing globally efficient estimators require non-parametric estimation of a propensity score function, an outcome regression function or both, but their performance can be poor in practical sample sizes. Without explicitly estimating either function, we consider a wide class of…
