Double Kernel Estimation of Sensitivities [PDF]
In this paper we address the general issue of estimating the sensitivity of the expectation of a random variable with respect to a parameter characterizing its evolution. In finance, for example, the sensitivities of the price of a contingent claim are called the Greeks. A new way of estimating the Greeks has recently been introduced in Elie, Fermanian

Nonparametric Inference in Mixture Cure Models
A completely nonparametric method for the estimation of mixture cure models is proposed. Nonparametric estimators for the cure probability (incidence) and for the survival function of the uncured population (latency) are introduced.

Research Based on High-Dimensional Fused Lasso Partially Linear Model
In this paper, a partially linear model based on the fused lasso method is proposed to solve the problem of high correlation between adjacent variables, and then the idea of the two-stage estimation method is used to study the solution of this model ...

Kernel density classification and boosting: an L2 sub analysis [PDF]
Kernel density estimation is a commonly used approach to classification. However, most of the theoretical results for kernel methods apply to estimation per se and not necessarily to classification.

Convergence Analysis of MAP Based Blur Kernel Estimation [PDF]
One popular approach for blind deconvolution is to formulate a maximum a posteriori (MAP) problem with sparsity priors on the gradients of the latent image, and then alternatingly estimate the blur kernel and the latent image.

Rating Crop Insurance Policies with Efficient Nonparametric Estimators That Admit Mixed Data Types
The identification of improved methods for characterizing crop yield densities has experienced a recent surge in activity due in part to the central role played by crop insurance in the Agricultural Risk Protection Act of 2000 (estimates of yield ...

We propose a generalized partially linear functional single index risk score model for repeatedly measured outcomes where the index itself is a function of time.

Interval Estimation of Value-at-Risk Based on Nonparametric Models
Value-at-Risk (VaR) has become the most important benchmark for measuring risk in portfolios of different types of financial instruments. However, as reported by many authors, estimating VaR is subject to a high level of uncertainty.

Blind Deconvolution with Scale Ambiguity
Recent years have witnessed significant advances in single image deblurring due to the increasing popularity of electronic imaging equipment. Most existing blind image deblurring algorithms focus on designing distinctive image priors for blur kernel ...
