The estimation of the watermelon density from a two-dimensional photograph [PDF]
The density of a watermelon floating in a container of water is estimated with a simplified method from theoretical geometry without consideration of three –dimensional effects. The watermelon was approximated as a sphere.

Quasi-concave density estimation
Maximum likelihood estimation of a log-concave probability density is formulated as a convex optimization problem and shown to have an equivalent dual formulation as a constrained maximum Shannon entropy problem.

Robust kernel density estimation [PDF]
We propose a method for nonparametric density estimation that exhibits robustness to contamination of the training sample. This method achieves robustness by combining a traditional kernel density estimator (KDE) with ideas from classical $M$-estimation.

Multivariate kernel density estimation with a parametric support [PDF]
We consider kernel density estimation in the multivariate case, focusing on the use of some elements of parametric estimation. We present a two-step method, based on a modification of the EM algorithm and the generalized kernel density estimator, and ...

Unified Probabilistic and Similarity-Based Position Estimation from Radio Observations
We propose a modeling approach for position estimation based on the observed radio propagation in an environment. The approach is purely similarity-based and therefore free of explicit physical assumptions.

Nonparametric Estimation for Functional Data by Wavelet Threshold
This paper deals with density and regression estimation problems for functional data. Using wavelet bases for Hilbert spaces of functions, we develop a new adaptive procedure based on a term-by-term selection of the wavelet coefficients estimators.
