Yield Curve Estimation by Kernel Smoothing Methods [PDF]

open access: yes
We introduce a new method for the estimation of discount functions, yield curves and forward curves from government issued coupon bonds. Our approach is nonparametric and does not assume a particular functional form for the discount function although we ...

Moment Restriction-based Econometric Methods: An Overview [PDF]

open access: yes
Moment restriction-based econometric modelling is a broad class which includes the parametric, semiparametric and nonparametric approaches. Moments and conditional moments themselves are nonparametric quantities.

PEMILIHAN THRESHOLD OPTIMAL PADA ESTIMATOR REGRESI WAVELET THRESHOLDING DENGAN METODE CROSS VALIDASI

open access: yesMedia Statistika, 2009
If x is a predictor variable and y is a response  variable of  the regression model y = f (x)+ Î with  f is a regression function which not yet been known and Î is independent random variable with mean 0 and variance , hence function f can be estimated ...

Nonparametric IV estimation of shape-invariant Engel curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper concerns the identification and estimation of a shape-invariant Engel curve system with endogenous total expenditure. The shape-invariant specification involves a common shift parameter for each demographic group in a pooled system of Engel

A 3D Biofabricated Disease Model Mimicking the Brain Extracellular Matrix Suitable to Characterize Intrinsic Neuronal Network Alterations in the Presence of a Breast Tumor Disseminated to the Brain

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D disease model is developed using customized hyaluronic‐acid‐based hydrogels supplemented with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins resembling brain ECM properties. Neurons, astrocytes, and tumor cells are used to mimic the native brain surrounding.

From In‐Silico Optimized Microfabrication to Experimental Validation: Engineering a Tridimensional Epi‐Intraneural Interface

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An epi‐intraneural interface is developed through in silico optimization and a novel tridimensional microfabrication pipeline. The device integrates penetrating and epineural contacts on a flexible substrate. Mechanical, electrochemical, and in vivo testing in rat and pig reveal robust implantation, low‐threshold activation, and site‐dependent ...

Nonparametric estimation by convex programming

open access: yes, 2009
The problem we concentrate on is as follows: given (1) a convex compact set $X$ in ${\mathbb{R}}^n$, an affine mapping $x\mapsto A(x)$, a parametric family $\{p_{\mu}(\cdot)\}$ of probability densities and (2) $N$ i.i.d.

Nonparametric instrumental variable estimation under monotonicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The ill-posedness of the inverse problem of recovering a regression function in a nonparametric instrumental variable model leads to estimators that may suffer from a very slow, logarithmic rate of convergence. In this paper, we show that restricting the

Multiscale Hybrid Surface Topographies Orchestrate Immune Regulation, Antibacterial Defense, and Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hybrid wrinkled topographies coordinate immune, tissue, and bacterial interactions. The surfaces promote osteointegration, tune macrophage polarization, and inhibit biofilm formation, highlighting a multifunctional strategy for next‐generation implant design.

Improved nonparametric estimation of the drift in diffusion processes

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Физико-математические науки, 2018
In this paper, we have considered the robust adaptive nonparametric estimation problem for the drift coefficient in diffusion processes. It has been shown that the initial estimation problem can be reduced to the estimation problem in a discrete time ...
