Image Co-localization by Mimicking a Good Detector's Confidence Score Distribution [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Conference on Computer Vision, 2016
Given a set of images containing objects from the same category, the task of image co-localization is to identify and localize each instance. This paper shows that this problem can be solved by a simple but intriguing idea, that is, a common object ...

Bootstrap confidence intervals in mixtures of discrete distributions [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Statistical Planning and Inference, 2008
The problem of building bootstrap confidence intervals for small probabilities with count data is addressed. The law of the independent observations is assumed to be a mixture of a given family of power series distributions. The mixing distribution is estimated by nonparametric maximum likelihood and the corresponding mixture is used for resampling. We

Confidence disc and square for Cauchy distributions

open access: greenUkrains’kyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, 2023
UDC 519.21 We  construct a confidence region of parameters for a sample of size N from the Cauchy distributed random variables. Although Cauchy distribution has two parameters, a location parameter μ ∈ ℝ and a scale parameter σ > 0 , we infer them simultaneously by regarding them as a single complex parameter γ : = μ

Bayesian Confidence Bands for a Distribution Function [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Annals of Statistics, 1978
A set of recurrences is developed for computing the probability content of any prior or posterior confidence bands for a distribution function assuming the parameter of the prior Dirichlet process known. When the prior parameter is unknown and is estimated from the sample, nonparametric estimates of the probability content of the posterior bands are ...

Overcoming Dilution of Collision Probability in Satellite Conjunction Analysis via Confidence Distribution. [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy (Basel)
In satellite conjunction analysis, dilution of collision probability has been recognized as a significant deficiency of probabilistic inference. A recent study identified the false confidence problem as another limitation and suggested a possible causal ...

Confidence in confidence distributions! [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2020
The recent article ‘Satellite conjunction analysis and the false confidence theorem’ (Balch et al . 2019, Satellite conjunction analysis and the false confidence theorem. Proc. R. Soc. A 475 , 20180565) points to certain difficulties with Bayesian analysis when used for models for

Confidence Distributions for FIC Scores [PDF]

open access: yesEconometrics, 2020
When using the Focused Information Criterion (FIC) for assessing and ranking candidate models with respect to how well they do for a given estimation task, it is customary to produce a so-called FIC plot. This plot has the different point estimates along the y-axis and the root-FIC scores on the x-axis, these being the estimated root-mean-square scores.

Nonparametric Fusion Learning for Multiparameters: Synthesize Inferences From Diverse Sources Using Data Depth and Confidence Distribution

open access: yesJournal of the American Statistical Association, 2021
Fusion learning refers to synthesizing inferences from multiple sources or studies to make a more effective inference and prediction than from any individual source or study alone.
