Density Estimation Through Convex Combinations of Densities: Approximation and Estimation Bounds [PDF]
Neural Networks, 1997 We consider the problem of estimating a density function from a sequence identically distributed observations x(i) taking value in X subset R(d). The estimation procedure constructs a convex mixture of "basis" densities and estimates the parameters using the maximum likelihood method.

The estimation of the watermelon density from a two-dimensional photograph [PDF]
Warasan Witthayasat Lae Theknoloyi Mahawitthayalai Mahasarakham, 2019 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.

Estimation of the Scaling Parameter for A Symmetric Design Function [PDF]
The Egyptian Statistical Journal, 1990 Some results are given for the estimation of the scaling parameter in kernel-type density estimation for a symmetric density. For the case when the point of symmetry, θ is known it is shown that a symmetrized Kernal estimator is, as measured by MISE ...

Local density estimation for VANETs [PDF]
2016 Global Information Infrastructure and Networking Symposium (GIIS), 2016 Local vehicle density estimation is an integral part of various applications of Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) such as congestion control and congestion traffic estimation. Currently, many applications use beacons to estimate this density. However, many studies show that the reception rate of these beacons can significantly drop at short distances ...

Unified Probabilistic and Similarity-Based Position Estimation from Radio Observations
SensorsWe 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.
