线横断采样是在野生动物人口的调查的一个很有用的方法。为一张生物人口的密度 D 的充满信心的间隔评价基于一个顺序的图案被建议。调查区域被其尺寸未知的人口占据。一条停止的规则被垂直数据的密度功能的一个基于核的评估者在距离建议。与这条停止的规则,我们由差别过程为 D 构造几信心间隔。一些偏爱减小技术被用来修改信心间隔。当在停止的规则的带宽接近零,这些间隔提供需要的范围概率。模拟研究也被给说明这个建议顺序的内核过程的性能。
This article is concerned with the estimating problem of semiparametric varyingcoefficient partially linear regression models. By combining the local polynomial and least squares procedures Fan and Huang (2005) proposed a profile least squares estimator for the parametric component and established its asymptotic normality. We further show that the profile least squares estimator can achieve the law of iterated logarithm. Moreover, we study the estimators of the functions characterizing the non-linear part as well as the error variance. The strong convergence rate and the law of iterated logarithm are derived for them, respectively.
This paper studies the least absolute deviation estimation of the high frequency financial autoregressive conditional duration (ACD) model. The asymptotic properties of the estimator are studied given mild regularity conditions. Furthermore, we develop a Wald test statistic for the linear restriction on the parameters. A simulation study is conducted for the finite sample properties of our estimator. Finally, we give an empirical study of financial duration.
We propose to approximate the conditional density function of a random variable Y given a dependent random d-vector X by that of Y given θ^τX, where the unit vector θ is selected such that the average Kullback-Leibler discrepancy distance between the two conditional density functions obtains the minimum. Our approach is nonparametric as far as the estimation of the conditional density functions is concerned. We have shown that this nonparametric estimator is asymptotically adaptive to the unknown index θ in the sense that the first order asymptotic mean squared error of the estimator is the same as that when θ was known. The proposed method is illustrated using both simulated and real-data examples.
