Book Robust Wilcoxon Type Estimation of Change Point Location Under Short Range Dependence

Download or read book Robust Wilcoxon Type Estimation of Change Point Location Under Short Range Dependence written by Carina Gerstenberger and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We introduce a robust estimator of the location parameter for the change-point in the mean based on Wilcoxon statistic and establish its consistency for near-epoch dependent processes. It is shown that the consistency rate depends on the magnitude of the change. A simulation study is performed to evaluate the finite sample properties of the Wilcoxon-type estimator under Gaussianity as well as under heavy-tailed distributions and disturbances by outliers, and to compare it with a CUSUM-type estimator. It shows that the Wilcoxon-type estimator is equivalent to the CUSUM-type estimator under Gaussianity but outperforms it in the presence of heavy tails or outliers in the data.

Book Introduction to Robust Estimation and Hypothesis Testing

Download or read book Introduction to Robust Estimation and Hypothesis Testing written by Rand R. Wilcox and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 713 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book focuses on the practical aspects of modern and robust statistical methods. The increased accuracy and power of modern methods, versus conventional approaches to the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and regression, is remarkable. Through a combination of theoretical developments, improved and more flexible statistical methods, and the power of the computer, it is now possible to address problems with standard methods that seemed insurmountable only a few years ago"--

Book On Robust Estimation of Multiple Change Points in Multivariate and Matrix Processes

Download or read book On Robust Estimation of Multiple Change Points in Multivariate and Matrix Processes written by Yana Melnykov and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are numerous areas of human activities where various processes are observed over time. If the conditions of the process change, it can be reflected through the shift in observed response values. The detection and estimation of such shifts is commonly known as change point inference. While the estimation helps us learn about the process nature, assess its parameters, and analyze identified change points, the detection focuses on finding shifts in the real-time process flow. There is a vast variety of methods proposed in the literature to target change point detections in both settings. Unfortunately, the majority of procedures impose very restrictive assumptions. Some of them include the normality of data, independence of observations, or independence of subjects in multisubject studies. In this dissertation, a new methodology, relying on more realistic assumptions, is developed. This dissertation report includes three chapters. The summary of each chapter is provided below. In the first chapter, we develop methodology capable of estimating and detecting multiple change points in a multisubject single variable process observed over time. In the second chapter, we introduce methodology for the robust estimation of change points in multivariate processes observed over time. In the third chapter, we generalize the ideas presented in the first two chapters by developing methodology capable of identifying multiple change points in multisubject matrix processes observed over time.

Book Robustness in Statistics

Download or read book Robustness in Statistics written by Robert L. Launer and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robustness in Statistics contains the proceedings of a Workshop on Robustness in Statistics held on April 11-12, 1978, at the Army Research Office in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The papers review the state of the art in statistical robustness and cover topics ranging from robust estimation to the robustness of residual displays and robust smoothing. The application of robust regression to trajectory data reduction is also discussed. Comprised of 14 chapters, this book begins with an introduction to robust estimation, paying particular attention to iteration schemes and error structure of estimators. Sensitivity and influence curves as well as their connection with jackknife estimates are described. The reader is then introduced to a simple analog of trimmed means that can be used for studying residuals from a robust point-of-view; a class of robust estimators (called P-estimators) based on the location and scale-invariant Pitman estimators of location; and robust estimation in the presence of outliers. Subsequent chapters deal with robust regression and its use to reduce trajectory data; tests for censoring of extreme values, especially when population distributions are incompletely defined; and robust estimation for time series autoregressions. This monograph should be of interest to mathematicians and statisticians.

Book Robust Statistical Procedures

Download or read book Robust Statistical Procedures written by Peter J. Huber and published by SIAM. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a brief, well-organized, and easy-to-follow introduction and overview of robust statistics. Huber focuses primarily on the important and clearly understood case of distribution robustness, where the shape of the true underlying distribution deviates slightly from the assumed model (usually the Gaussian law). An additional chapter on recent developments in robustness has been added and the reference list has been expanded and updated from the 1977 edition.

Book A Parametric Approach to Nonparametric Statistics

Download or read book A Parametric Approach to Nonparametric Statistics written by Mayer Alvo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates that nonparametric statistics can be taught from a parametric point of view. As a result, one can exploit various parametric tools such as the use of the likelihood function, penalized likelihood and score functions to not only derive well-known tests but to also go beyond and make use of Bayesian methods to analyze ranking data. The book bridges the gap between parametric and nonparametric statistics and presents the best practices of the former while enjoying the robustness properties of the latter. This book can be used in a graduate course in nonparametrics, with parts being accessible to senior undergraduates. In addition, the book will be of wide interest to statisticians and researchers in applied fields.

Book Robust Estimates of Location

Download or read book Robust Estimates of Location written by David F. Andrews and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because estimation involves inferring information about an unknown quantity on the basis of available data, the selection of an estimator is influenced by its ability to perform well under the conditions that are assumed to underlie the data. Since these conditions are never known exactly, the estimators chosen must be robust; i.e., they must be able to perform well under a variety of underlying conditions. The theory of robust estimation is based on specified properties of specified estimators under specified conditions. This book was written as the result of a study undertaken to establish the interaction of these three components over as large a range as possible. Originally published in 1972. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
