Beta Kernel Estimator for a Cumulative Distribution Function with Bounded Support [PDF]
Kernel estimation of the cumulative distribution function (CDF), when the support of the data is bounded, suffers from bias at the boundaries. To solve this problem, we introduce a new estimator for the CDF with support (0,1) based on the beta kernel ...

On the fourth-order hybrid beta polynomial kernels in kernel density estimation
This paper introduces a novel family of fourth-order hybrid beta polynomial kernels tailored for statistical analysis. The efficacy of these kernels is evaluated using two principal performance metrics: asymptotic mean integrated squared error (AMISE ...

Curve fitting of the corporate recovery rates: the comparison of Beta distribution estimation and kernel density estimation. [PDF]
Recovery rate is essential to the estimation of the portfolio's loss and economic capital. Neglecting the randomness of the distribution of recovery rate may underestimate the risk.

In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid discriminative generative model by integrating a modified version of hidden Markov model (HMM), multivariate Beta-based HMM with support vector machine (SVM). We apply Fisher Kernel to define decision boundary and

A New Kernel Estimator of Copulas Based on Beta Quantile Transformations
A copula is a multivariate cumulative distribution function with marginal distributions Uniform(0,1). For this reason, a classical kernel estimator does not work and this estimator needs to be corrected at boundaries, which increases the difficulty of ...

A machine learning-based model for a dose point kernel calculation
Purpose Absorbed dose calculation by kernel convolution requires the prior determination of dose point kernels (DPK). This study reports on the design, implementation, and test of a multi-target regressor approach to generate the DPKs for monoenergetic ...

A Hardy–Hilbert-type integral inequality involving two multiple upper-limit functions
By means of the weight functions, the idea of introducing parameters and the technique of real analysis, a new Hardy–Hilbert-type integral inequality with the homogeneous kernel 1 ( x + y ) λ ( λ > 0 ) $\frac{1}{(x + y)^{\lambda}}\ (\lambda > 0 ...
