To select the bandwidth, an efficient cross-validation procedure is introduced, based on closed-form expressions in terms of the primal and dual B-spline basis. By utilizing a closed-form expression for the dual basis, the least-squares cross validation formula is calculated in closed-form, enabling an efficient estimation of the optimal bandwidth. The full computational procedure achieves optimal complexity, and is very accurate in comparisons with existing estimation procedures, including state-of-the-art kernel density estimators. The presented theoretical results are supported by extensive numerical experiments, which demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the new methodology. This new approach provides a complete and optimally efficient framework for density estimation with a B-spline basis, based on simple and elegant closed-form estimators with theoretical convergence results that are substantiated in numerical experiments.","PeriodicalId":183820,"journal":{"name":"DecisionSciRN: Other Decision-Making in Mathematics (Sub-Topic)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114082141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Theoretical propositions turned into a set of grammar rules can acknowledge a pattern of sequences of decision-making events on conducting individual actions or social interactions with partners. The result is a discrete mathematical model for a category of social process that needs modifications to explain all instances of the surprising fact as a new event outcome regarding specific configurations of other past event outcomes that become the historical context for its generation. The data-grounded theory refinement is possible through structural comparison between cases belonging to the same category of social process, but differing in respect to this contingent pattern of sequences of events. As an example, the case study of the competence development process in the firm is detailed in terms of a grammar of its socioeconomic bevahior to support the generation of middle-range theories of the firm.","PeriodicalId":183820,"journal":{"name":"DecisionSciRN: Other Decision-Making in Mathematics (Sub-Topic)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134132372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
