Theoretical and Empirical Differences between Diagonal and Full BEKK for Risk Management
The purpose of the paper is to explore the relative biases in the estimation of the Full BEKK model as compared with the Diagonal BEKK model, which is used as a theoretical and empirical benchmark.

Non-Parametric Clustering Using Deep Neural Networks
In this paper, a novel algorithm for non-parametric image clustering, is proposed. Non-parametric clustering methods operate by considering the number of clusters unknown as opposed to parametric clustering, where the number of clusters is known a priori.

Receiver Operator Characteristic Analysis of Biomarkers Evaluation in Diagnostic Research [PDF]
Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) analysis is the choice of method in evaluation of biomarkers in bioinformatics research. However, there is no single method and also no single accuracy index in evaluating diagnostic tools.

Non-Parametric Function Fitting
Summary In this note we consider the problem of fitting a general functional relationship between two variables. We require only that the function to be fitted is, in some sense, “smooth”, and do not assume that it has a known mathematical form involving only a finite number of unknown parameters.

Non-Parametric Inference of Relational Dependence
Independence testing plays a central role in statistical and causal inference from observational data. Standard independence tests assume that the data samples are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) but that assumption is violated in many real-world datasets and applications centered on relational systems.

A Non-Parametric Test of Independence [PDF]
A test is proposed for the independence of two random variables with continuous distribution function (d.f.). The test is consistent with respect to the class Ω′of d.f.’s with continuous joint and marginal probability densities (p.d.). The test statistic D depends only on the rank order of the observations.

Adjusted empirical likelihood analysis of restricted mean survival time for length-biased data [PDF]
The Restricted Mean Survival Time (RMST) serves as a valuable and extensively utilized metric in clinical trials. However, its application becomes intricate when dealing with data affected by length-biased sampling, rendering traditional inference ...
