Wavelet Estimators in Nonparametric Regression: A Comparative Simulation Study [PDF]
Wavelet analysis has been found to be a powerful tool for the nonparametric estimation of spatially-variable objects. We discuss in detail wavelet methods in nonparametric regression, where the data are modelled as observations of a signal contaminated ...

A Comparison of Model-Assisted Estimators to Infer Land Cover/Use Class Area Using Satellite Imagery
Remote sensing provides timely, economic, and objective data over a large area and has become the main data source for land cover/use area estimation. However, the classification results cannot be directly used to calculate the area of a given land cover/

Learning to Calibrate - Estimating the Hand-eye Transformation Without Calibration Objects [PDF]
Hand-eye calibration is a method to determine the transformation linking between the robot and camera coordinate systems. Conventional calibration algorithms use a calibration grid to determine camera poses, corresponding to the robot poses, both of which are used in the main calibration procedure.

A calibrated synthetic estimator for small area estimation [PDF]
Abstract Synthetic estimators are known to produce estimates of population mean in areas where no sampled data are available, but such estimates are usually highly biased with invalid confidence statements. This paper presents a calibrated synthetic estimator of the population mean which addresses these problematic issues.

Estimation of the finite population covariance using calibration
Estimators of the finite population covariance with several systems of weights are considered. New calibrated estimators of the finite population covariance (variance) are derived, using two and three weighting systems that are defined by various ...

Calibrating random forests for probability estimation [PDF]
Probabilities can be consistently estimated using random forests. It is, however, unclear how random forests should be updated to make predictions for other centers or at different time points. In this work, we present two approaches for updating random forests for probability estimation.

New calibration estimation procedure in the presence of unit non response
In the present work, we have proposed the calibrated estimator of population mean in the presence of unit non response. The non response has been adjusted using the non response adjustment factor depending on different models (which are inverse linear ...
