Nonparametric modal regression
Yen-Chi Chen, Christopher R. Genovese, Ryan J. Tibshirani +1
Modal regression estimates the local modes of the distribution of given , instead of the mean, as in the usual regression sense, and can hence reveal important structure m…
Generalized Mode and Ridge Estimation
Yen-Chi Chen, Christopher R. Genovese, Larry Wasserman
The generalized density is a product of a density function and a weight function. For example, the average local brightness of an astronomical image is the probability of finding a…
Asymptotic theory for density ridges
Yen-Chi Chen, Christopher R. Genovese, Larry Wasserman
The large sample theory of estimators for density modes is well understood. In this paper we consider density ridges, which are a higher-dimensional extension of modes. Modes corre…
A Comprehensive Approach to Mode Clustering
Yen-Chi Chen, Christopher R. Genovese, Larry Wasserman
Mode clustering is a nonparametric method for clustering that defines clusters using the basins of attraction of a density estimator's modes. We provide several enhancements to mod…
