Varying Coefficient Model via Adaptive Spline Fitting
Xufei Wang, Bo Jiang, Jun S. Liu
The varying coefficient model has received broad attention from researchers as it is a powerful dimension reduction tool for non-parametric modeling. Most existing varying coeffici…
Concordance: In-flight Calibration of X-ray Telescopes without Absolute References
Herman L. Marshall, Yang Chen, Jeremy J. Drake +7
We describe a process for cross-calibrating the effective areas of X-ray telescopes that observe common targets. The targets are not assumed to be "standard candles" in the classic…
Calibration Concordance for Astronomical Instruments via Multiplicative Shrinkage
Yang Chen, Xiao-Li Meng, Xufei Wang +3
Calibration data are often obtained by observing several well-understood objects simultaneously with multiple instruments, such as satellites for measuring astronomical sources. An…
Generalized R-squared for Detecting Dependence
Xufei Wang, Bo Jiang, Jun S. Liu
Detecting dependence between two random variables is a fundamental problem. Although the Pearson correlation is effective for capturing linear dependency, it can be entirely powerl…
Fast and optimal nonparametric sequential design for astronomical observations
Justin J. Yang, Xufei Wang, Pavlos Protopapas +1
The spectral energy distribution (SED) is a relatively easy way for astronomers to distinguish between different astronomical objects such as galaxies, black holes, and stellar obj…
