Adaptive Nonparametric Density Estimation with B-Spline Bases

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
Learning density estimation is important in probabilistic modeling and reasoning with uncertainty. Since B-spline basis functions are piecewise polynomials with local support, density estimation with B-splines shows its advantages when intensive ...

High throughput nonparametric probability density estimation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
In high throughput applications, such as those found in bioinformatics and finance, it is important to determine accurate probability distribution functions despite only minimal information about data characteristics, and without using human subjectivity.

Research of nonparametric density estimation algorithms by applying clustering methods

open access: yesLietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2023
One of the ways to improve the accuracy of probability density estimation is multi-mode density treating as the mixture of single-mode one. In this paper we offer to use data clustering in the first place and to estimate density in every cluster ...

An Assessment of Hermite Function Based Approximations of Mutual Information Applied to Independent Component Analysis

open access: yesEntropy, 2008
At the heart of many ICA techniques is a nonparametric estimate of an information measure, usually via nonparametric density estimation, for example, kernel density estimation.

Computationally Efficient Bootstrap Expressions for Bandwidth Selection in Nonparametric Curve Estimation

open access: yesProceedings, 2018
Bootstrap methods are used for bandwidth selection in: (1) nonparametric kernel density estimation with dependent data (smoothed stationary bootstrap and smoothed moving blocks bootstrap), and (2) nonparametric kernel hazard rate estimation (smoothed ...
