Minimum Risk Equivariant Estimation of the Parameters of the General Half-Normal Distribution by Means of a Monte Carlo Method to Approximate Conditional Expectations
A. G. Nogales, P. Pérez, P. Monfort
This work addresses the problem of estimating the parameters of the general half-normal distribution. Namely, the problem of determining the minimum risk equi\-va\-riant (MRE) esti…
A comparison of bandwidth selectors for mean shift clustering
José E. Chacón, Pablo Monfort
We explore the performance of several automatic bandwidth selectors, originally designed for density gradient estimation, as data-based procedures for nonparametric, modal clusteri…
A Monte Carlo Method to Approximate Conditional Expectations based on a Theorem of Besicovitch: Application to Equivariant Estimation of the Parameters of the General Half-Normal Distribution
Agustín G. Nogales, P. Pérez, P. Monfort
A natural Monte Carlo method to approximate conditional expectations in a probabilistic framework is justified by a general result inspired on the Besicovitch covering theorem on d…
Fourier methods for smooth distribution function estimation
José E. Chacón, Pablo Monfort, Carlos Tenreiro
In this paper we show how to use Fourier transform methods to analyze the asymptotic behavior of kernel distribution function estimators. Exact expressions for the mean integrated…
