A reliable data-based smoothing parameter selection method for circular kernel estimation

Jose Ameijeiras-Alonso

A new data-based smoothing parameter for circular kernel density (and its derivatives) estimation is proposed. Following the plug-in ideas, unknown quantities on an optimal smoothi…

Nonparametric tests for circular regression

María Alonso-Pena, Jose Ameijeiras-Alonso, Rosa M. Crujeiras

No matter the nature of the response and/or explanatory variables in a regression model, some basic issues such as the existence of an effect of the predictor on the response, or t…

Fire seasonality identification with multimodality tests

Jose Ameijeiras-Alonso, Akli Benali, Rosa M. Crujeiras +2

Understanding the role of vegetation fires in the Earth system has become an important environmental problem. Although fires time occurrence is mainly influenced by climate, human…

Multimode: An R Package for Mode Assessment

Jose Ameijeiras-Alonso, Rosa M. Crujeiras, Alberto Rodríguez-Casal

In several applied fields, multimodality assessment is a crucial task as a previous exploratory tool or for determining the suitability of certain distributions. The goal of this p…

Optimal tests for circular reflective symmetry about an unknown central direction

Jose Ameijeiras-Alonso, Christophe Ley, Arthur Pewsey +1

Parametric and semiparametric tests of circular reflective symmetry about an unknown central direction are developed that are locally and asymptotically optimal in the Le Cam sense…

Mode testing, critical bandwidth and excess mass

Jose Ameijeiras-Alonso, Rosa M. Crujeiras, Alberto Rodríguez-Casal

The identification of peaks or maxima in probability densities, by mode testing or bump hunting, has become an important problem in applied fields. This task has been approached in…
