核学习中的正则化
Under mild assumptions on the kernel, we obtain the best known error rates in a regularized learning scenario taking place in the corresponding reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). The main novelty in the analysis is a proof that one can use a regularization term that grows significantly slower than the standard quadratic growth in the RKHS norm.
常微分方程参数广义剖面估计的渐近效率与有限样本性质
Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are commonly used to model dynamic behavior of a system. Because many parameters are unknown and have to be estimated from the observed data, there is growing interest in statistics to develop efficient estimation procedures for these parameters. Among the proposed methods in the literature, the generalized profiling estimation method developed by Ramsay and colleagues is particularly promising for its computational efficiency and good…
核随机矩阵的谱
We place ourselves in the setting of high-dimensional statistical inference where the number of variables p in a dataset of interest is of the same order of magnitude as the number of observations n. We consider the spectrum of certain kernel random matrices, in particular n×n matrices whose (i, j)th entry is f(X'iXj/p) or f(‖Xi−Xj‖2/p) where p is the dimension of the data, and Xi are independent data vectors. Here f is assumed to be a locally smooth function. The study is…
适应未知光滑度的平均导数估计
Many important models utilize estimation of average derivatives of the conditional mean function. Asymptotic results in the literature on density weighted average derivative estimators (ADE) focus on convergence at parametric rates; this requires making stringent assumptions on smoothness of the underlying density; here we derive asymptotic properties under relaxed smoothness assumptions. We adapt to the unknown smoothness in the model by consistently estimating the optimal…
加性系数模型的样条回拟核平滑
Additive coefficient model (Xue and Yang, 2006a, 2006b) is a flexible regression and autoregression tool that circumvents the “curse of dimensionality.” We propose spline-backfitted kernel (SBK) and spline-backfitted local linear (SBLL) estimators for the component functions in the additive coefficient model that are both (i) computationally expedient so they are usable for analyzing high dimensional data, and (ii) theoretically reliable so inference can be made on the…
逆条件密度加权期望估计的最优带宽选择
This paper characterizes the bandwidth value ( h ) that is optimal for estimating parameters of the form $\eta \, = \,E\left[ {\omega /f_{V|U} \left({V|U} \right)} \right]$ , where the conditional density of a scalar continuous random variable V , given a random vector U , $f_{V|U} $ , is replaced by its kernel estimator. That is, the parameter η is the expectation of ω inversely weighted by $f_{V|U} $ , and it is the building block of various semiparametric…
已实现瞬时波动率的非参数滤波：核方法
A kernel weighted version of the standard realized integrated volatility estimator is proposed. By different choices of the kernel and bandwidth, the measure allows us to focus on specific characteristics of the volatility process. In particular, as the bandwidth vanishes, an estimator of the realized spot volatility is obtained. We denote this the filtered spot volatility. We show consistency and asymptotic normality of the kernel smoothed realized volatility and the…
局部复合分位数回归平滑：局部多项式回归的替代方法
Summary Local polynomial regression is a useful non-parametric regression tool to explore fine data structures and has been widely used in practice. We propose a new non-parametric regression technique called local composite quantile regression smoothing to improve local polynomial regression further. Sampling properties of the estimation procedure proposed are studied. We derive the asymptotic bias, variance and normality of the estimate proposed. The asymptotic relative…
含内生解释变量的广义回归模型中的因果效应检验
A unifying framework to test for causal effects in nonlinear models is proposed. We consider a generalized linear-index regression model with endogenous regressors and no parametric assumptions on the error disturbances. To test the significance of the effect of an endogenous regressor, we propose a statistic that is a kernel-weighted version of the rank correlation statistic (tau) of Kendall (1938). The semiparametric model encompasses previous cases considered in the…
自适应近似贝叶斯计算
Sequential techniques can enhance the efficiency of the approximate Bayesian computation algorithm, as in Sisson et al.’s (2007) partial rejection control version. While this method is based upon the theoretical works of Del Moral et al. (2006), the application to approximate Bayesian computation results in a bias in the approximation to the posterior. An alternative version based on genuine importance sampling arguments bypasses this difficulty, in connection with the…
基于 Copula 的半参数马尔可夫模型的有效估计
This paper considers the efficient estimation of copula-based semiparametric strictly stationary Markov models. These models are characterized by nonparametric invariant (one-dimensional marginal) distributions and parametric bivariate copula functions where the copulas capture temporal dependence and tail dependence of the processes. The Markov processes generated via tail dependent copulas may look highly persistent and are useful for financial and economic applications.…
带参数引导的局部拟似然
Generalized linear models and quasi-likelihood method extend the ordinary regression models to accommodate more general conditional distributions of the response. Nonparametric methods need no explicit parametric specification and the resulting model is completely determined by the data themselves. However nonparametric estimation schemes generally have a slower convergence rate such as the local polynomial smoothing estimation of nonparametric generalized linear models…
非线性主成分与多元扩散过程的长期含义
We investigate a method for extracting nonlinear principal components (NPCs). These NPCs maximize variation subject to smoothness and orthogonality constraints; but we allow for a general class of constraints and multivariate probability densities, including densities without compact support and even densities with algebraic tails. We provide primitive sufficient conditions for the existence of these NPCs. By exploiting the theory of continuous-time, reversible Markov…
非线性非平稳时间序列自回归的设定检验
This paper considers a class of nonparametric autoregressive models with nonstationarity. We propose a nonparametric kernel test for the conditional mean and then establish an asymptotic distribution of the proposed test. Both the setting and the results differ from earlier work on nonparametric autoregression with stationarity. In addition, we develop a new bootstrap simulation scheme for the selection of a suitable bandwidth parameter involved in the kernel test as well as…
泛函导数的估计
Situations of a functional predictor paired with a scalar response are increasingly encountered in data analysis. Predictors are often appropriately modeled as square integrable smooth random functions. Imposing minimal assumptions on the nature of the functional relationship, we aim to estimate the directional derivatives and gradients of the response with respect to the predictor functions. In statistical applications and data analysis, functional derivatives provide a…
梯度场的路径密度
We consider the problem of reliably finding filaments in point clouds. Realistic data sets often have numerous filaments of various sizes and shapes. Statistical techniques exist for finding one (or a few) filaments but these methods do not handle noisy data sets with many filaments. Other methods can be found in the astronomy literature but they do not have rigorous statistical guarantees. We propose the following method. Starting at each data point we construct the…
变系数模型的局部秩推断
By allowing the regression coefficients to change with certain covariates, the class of varying coefficient models offers a flexible approach to modeling nonlinearity and interactions between covariates. This paper proposes a novel estimation procedure for the varying coefficient models based on local ranks. The new procedure provides a highly efficient and robust alternative to the local linear least squares method, and can be conveniently implemented using existing R…
具有参数模型特征的局部多项式分位数回归
We propose a new approach to conditional quantile function estimation that combines both parametric and nonparametric techniques. At each design point, a global, possibly incorrect, pilot parametric model is locally adjusted through a kernel smoothing fit. The resulting quantile regression estimator behaves like a parametric estimator when the latter is correct and converges to the nonparametric solution as the parametric start deviates from the true underlying model. We…
GARCH 模型的条件分位数估计
Conditional quantile estimation is an essential ingredient in modern risk management. Although generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) processes have proven highly successful in modeling financial data, it is generally recognized that it would be useful to consider a broader class of processes capable of representing more flexibly both asymmetry and tail behavior of conditional returns distributions. In this article we study estimation of…
广义非线性 ℓ1 正则化解路径的高效全局近似及应用
We consider efficient construction of nonlinear solution paths for general ℓ1-regularization. Unlike the existing methods that incrementally build the solution path through a combination of local linear approximation and recalibration, we propose an efficient global approximation to the whole solution path. With the loss function approximated by a quadratic spline, we show that the solution path can be computed using a generalized Lars algorithm. The proposed methodology…
含非平稳性的非线性时间序列非参数设定检验
This paper considers a nonparametric time series regression model with a nonstationary regressor. We construct a nonparametric test for whether the regression is of a known parametric form indexed by a vector of unknown parameters. We establish the asymptotic distribution of the proposed test statistic. Both the setting and the results differ from earlier work on nonparametric time series regression with stationarity. In addition, we develop a bootstrap simulation scheme for…
分数误差下非参数趋势时间序列的推断
The central limit theorem for nonparametric kernel estimates of a smooth trend, with linearly generated errors, indicates asymptotic independence and homoskedasticity across fixed points, irrespective of whether disturbances have short memory, long memory, or antipersistence. However, the asymptotic variance depends on the kernel function in a way that varies across these three circumstances, and in the latter two it involves a double integral that cannot necessarily be…
基于免调节参数统计量的高功效自回归单位根检验
This paper presents a family of simple nonparametric unit root tests indexed by one parameter, d , and containing the Breitung (2002, Journal of Econometrics 108, 342–363) test as the special case d = 1. It is shown that (a) each member of the family with d > 0 is consistent, (b) the asymptotic distribution depends on d and thus reflects the parameter chosen to implement the test, and (c) because the asymptotic distribution depends on d and the test remains consistent for…
局部极限理论与非参数伪回归
A local limit theorem is proved for sample covariances of nonstationary time series and integrable functions of such time series that involve a bandwidth sequence. The resulting theory enables an asymptotic development of nonparametric regression with integrated or fractionally integrated processes that includes the important practical case of spurious regressions. Some local regression diagnostics are suggested for forensic analysis of such regresssions, including a local R…
