Reducing variance in univariate smoothing

Ming-Yen Cheng, Liang Peng, Jyh-Shyang Wu

A variance reduction technique in nonparametric smoothing is proposed: at each point of estimation, form a linear combination of a preliminary estimator evaluated at nearby points…

Confidence regions for high quantiles of a heavy tailed distribution

Liang Peng, Yongcheng Qi

Estimating high quantiles plays an important role in the context of risk management. This involves extrapolation of an unknown distribution function. In this paper we propose three…
