一类非参数密度与回归估计量AI 解读

A class of maximum penalized likelihood estimators (MPLE) of the density function $f$ is constructed, through the use of a rather general roughness-penalty functional. This class contains all the density estimates in the literature that arise as solutions to MPLE problems with penalties on $f^{1/2}$. In addition, the flexibility of the penalty functional permits the construction of new spline estimates with improved performance at the peaks and valleys of the density curves.…

两种非参数最大惩罚似然密度估计量的一致性AI 解读

We study the consistency properties of a nonparametric estimator $f_n$ of a density function $f$ on the real line, which is known as the "first MPLE of Good and Gaskins," and which is obtained by maximizing the likelihood functional multiplied by the roughness penality $\exp\{- \alpha \int (f'/f)^2 f\}$ with $\alpha > 0$. Under modest assumptions on the density function $f$, and letting $\alpha = \alpha_n \rightarrow \infty$ and $\alpha_n/n \rightarrow 0$ a.s. as $n \rightarrow \infty$…
