A Durbin-Watson serial correlation test for ARX processes via excited adaptive tracking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We propose a new statistical test for the residual autocorrelation in ARX adaptive tracking. The introduction of a persistent excitation in the adaptive tracking control allows us to build a bilateral statistical test based on the well-known Durbin ...

On the asymptotic covariance of the multivariate empirical copula process

open access: yesDependence Modeling, 2019
Genest and Segers (2010) gave conditions under which the empirical copula process associated with a random sample from a bivariate continuous distribution has a smaller asymptotic covariance than the standard empirical process based on a random sample ...

Minimally capturing heterogeneous complier effect of endogenous treatment for any outcome variable

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2023
When a binary treatment DD is possibly endogenous, a binary instrument δ\delta is often used to identify the “effect on compliers.” If covariates XX affect both DD and an outcome YY, XX should be controlled to identify the “XX-conditional complier ...

Parameter tuning in pointwise adaptation using a propagation approach

open access: yes, 2009
This paper discusses the problem of adaptive estimation of a univariate object like the value of a regression function at a given point or a linear functional in a linear inverse problem.

Deconvolution by simulation

open access: yes, 2007
Given samples (x_1,...,x_m) and (z_1,...,z_n) which we believe are independent realizations of random variables X and Z respectively, where we further believe that Z=X+Y with Y independent of X, the problem is to estimate the distribution of Y.

Complete monotonicity of multinomial probabilities and its application to Bernstein estimators on the simplex

open access: yes, 2018
Let $d\in \mathbb{N}$ and let $\gamma_i\in [0,\infty)$, $x_i\in (0,1)$ be such that $\sum_{i=1}^{d+1} \gamma_i = M\in (0,\infty)$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{d+1} x_i = 1$.

A two parameter ratio-product-ratio estimator using auxiliary information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We propose a two parameter ratio-product-ratio estimator for a finite population mean in a simple random sample without replacement following the methodology in Ray and Sahai (1980), Sahai and Ray (1980), Sahai and Sahai (1985) and Singh and Ruiz Espejo (

On kernel-based estimation of conditional Kendall’s tau: finite-distance bounds and asymptotic behavior

open access: yesDependence Modeling, 2019
We study nonparametric estimators of conditional Kendall’s tau, a measure of concordance between two random variables given some covariates. We prove non-asymptotic pointwise and uniform bounds, that hold with high probabilities.

An optimal transport approach to estimating causal effects via nonlinear difference-in-differences

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference
We propose a nonlinear difference-in-differences (DiD) method to estimate multivariate counterfactual distributions in classical treatment and control study designs with observational data.

Estimation of the tail-index in a conditional location-scale family of heavy-tailed distributions

open access: yesDependence Modeling, 2019
We introduce a location-scale model for conditional heavy-tailed distributions when the covariate is deterministic. First, nonparametric estimators of the location and scale functions are introduced.
