Book Kernel Estimation for the Mode and Quantiles of Time Series

Download or read book Kernel Estimation for the Mode and Quantiles of Time Series written by Raid Salha and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, we are interested in the area of nonparametric prediction of time series. Therefore, the relationship between a current observation and past observations is considered, where the conditional density function plays an important role. Two aspects of the conditional probability density function, the mode and the quantiles are studied. Firstly, in the case of the mode, we state some sufficient conditions under which the joint kernel estimator of the conditional mode taken jointly at a finite number of distinct points is asymptotically normally distributed. Secondly, a new multivariate estimator for a multivariate conditional quantile is proposed, based on the reweighted Nadaraya-Watson estimator for the conditional cumulative distribution function. The efficiency of the proposed estimator is tested by giving two applications. The book also, involves a review which covers in sufficient details the up to date literature on kernel estimation for conditional mode and quantiles.

Book Time Series Model Identification by Estimating Information  Memory  and Quantiles

Download or read book Time Series Model Identification by Estimating Information Memory and Quantiles written by Emanuel Parzen and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper applies techniques of Quantile Data Analysis to non-parametrically analyze time series functions such as the sample spectral density, sample correlations, and sample partial correlations. The aim is to identify the memory type of an observed time series, and thus to identify parametric time domain models that fit an observed time series. Time series models are usually tested for adequacy by testing if their residuals are white noise. It is proposed that an additional criterion of fit for a parametric model is that it have the non-parametrically estimated memory characteristics. An important diagnostic of memory is the index delta of regular variation of a spectral density; estimators are proposed for delta. Interpretations of the new quantile criteria are developed through cataloging their values for representation time series. The model identification procedures proposed are illustrated by analysis of long memory series simulated by Granger and Joyeux, and the airline model of Box and Jenkins. (Author).

Book Functional Estimation For Density  Regression Models And Processes  Second Edition

Download or read book Functional Estimation For Density Regression Models And Processes Second Edition written by Odile Pons and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2023-09-22 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonparametric kernel estimators apply to the statistical analysis of independent or dependent sequences of random variables and for samples of continuous or discrete processes. The optimization of these procedures is based on the choice of a bandwidth that minimizes an estimation error and the weak convergence of the estimators is proved. This book introduces new mathematical results on statistical methods for the density and regression functions presented in the mathematical literature and for functions defining more complex models such as the models for the intensity of point processes, for the drift and variance of auto-regressive diffusions and the single-index regression models.This second edition presents minimax properties with Lp risks, for a real p larger than one, and optimal convergence results for new kernel estimators of function defining processes: models for multidimensional variables, periodic intensities, estimators of the distribution functions of censored and truncated variables, estimation in frailty models, estimators for time dependent diffusions, for spatial diffusions and for diffusions with stochastic volatility.

Book Empirical Likelihood and Quantile Methods for Time Series

Download or read book Empirical Likelihood and Quantile Methods for Time Series written by Yan Liu and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book integrates the fundamentals of asymptotic theory of statistical inference for time series under nonstandard settings, e.g., infinite variance processes, not only from the point of view of efficiency but also from that of robustness and optimality by minimizing prediction error. This is the first book to consider the generalized empirical likelihood applied to time series models in frequency domain and also the estimation motivated by minimizing quantile prediction error without assumption of true model. It provides the reader with a new horizon for understanding the prediction problem that occurs in time series modeling and a contemporary approach of hypothesis testing by the generalized empirical likelihood method. Nonparametric aspects of the methods proposed in this book also satisfactorily address economic and financial problems without imposing redundantly strong restrictions on the model, which has been true until now. Dealing with infinite variance processes makes analysis of economic and financial data more accurate under the existing results from the demonstrative research. The scope of applications, however, is expected to apply to much broader academic fields. The methods are also sufficiently flexible in that they represent an advanced and unified development of prediction form including multiple-point extrapolation, interpolation, and other incomplete past forecastings. Consequently, they lead readers to a good combination of efficient and robust estimate and test, and discriminate pivotal quantities contained in realistic time series models.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent of high-speed, affordable computers in the last two decades has given a new boost to the nonparametric way of thinking. Classical nonparametric procedures, such as function smoothing, suddenly lost their abstract flavour as they became practically implementable. In addition, many previously unthinkable possibilities became mainstream; prime examples include the bootstrap and resampling methods, wavelets and nonlinear smoothers, graphical methods, data mining, bioinformatics, as well as the more recent algorithmic approaches such as bagging and boosting. This volume is a collection of short articles - most of which having a review component - describing the state-of-the art of Nonparametric Statistics at the beginning of a new millennium. Key features: . algorithic approaches . wavelets and nonlinear smoothers . graphical methods and data mining . biostatistics and bioinformatics . bagging and boosting . support vector machines . resampling methods
