Application of Square Msplit Estimation in Determination of Vessel Position in Coastal Shipping
Polish Maritime Research, 2017 The main aim of this paper is to assess the possibility of using non-conventional geodetic estimation methods in maritime navigation. The research subject of this paper concerns robust determination of vessel’s position using a method of parameters ...

Estimating Quantile Families of Loss Distributions for Non-Life Insurance Modelling via L-moments [PDF]
, 2016 This paper discusses different classes of loss models in non-life insurance settings. It then overviews the class Tukey transform loss models that have not yet been widely considered in non-life insurance modelling, but offer opportunities to produce ...

Portfolio Selection With Robust Estimation [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2007 Mean-variance portfolios constructed using the sample mean and covariance matrix of asset returns perform poorly out of sample due to estimation error. Moreover, it is commonly accepted that estimation error in the sample mean is much larger than in the sample covariance matrix.

SUM: Sequential Scene Understanding and Manipulation
, 2017 In order to perform autonomous sequential manipulation tasks, perception in cluttered scenes remains a critical challenge for robots. In this paper, we propose a probabilistic approach for robust sequential scene estimation and manipulation - Sequential ...

The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1969 Abstract : The problem of finding robust estimators for the location parameter of symmetric unimodal distributions has been the subject of much recent research. This paper is concerned with finding robust estimators which are linear functions of the ordered observations.

The Robustness of Rasch Estimates [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 1986 The small scale applicability of Rasch estimates was investigated under simulated conditions of guess ing and heterogeneity in item discrimination. The ac curacy of the Rasch estimates was evaluated by means of the correlation between the item/person parameters and their estimates, the standard deviations of the esti mates, and the difference as well ...

Frequency Tracking and Parameter Estimation for Robust Quantum State-Estimation
, 2011 In this paper we consider the problem of tracking the state of a quantum system via a continuous measurement. If the system Hamiltonian is known precisely, this merely requires integrating the appropriate stochastic master equation. However, even a small

The Annals of Statistics, 1992 The study of the stability of parameter estimates for directional data dates back to the late sixties and this paper is an interesting contribution to this domain. The authors consider rotationally symmetric models for directional data with axis of rotation \(\mu\) and concentration parameter \(\kappa\). The prototype is the von Mises distribution. The

Robust kernel density estimation [PDF]
2008 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing, 2008 We propose a method for nonparametric density estimation that exhibits robustness to contamination of the training sample. This method achieves robustness by combining a traditional kernel density estimator (KDE) with ideas from classical $M$-estimation.
