Regularized-Likelihood Deconvolution with Posterior-Density Reconstruction
正则化似然反卷积与后验密度重构
Density deconvolution is an ill-posed inverse problem because recovering the latent density amplifies high-frequency variation in the observed data. We propose a two-stage likelihood procedure. The first estimator maximizes the convolution likelihood over a regularized Gaussian-mixture sieve; the second treats this fit as an empirical prior and averages the fitted conditional latent densities. Under fixed-model misspecification, the estimators generally have different…
