The null distributions of most existing tests are asymptotically normal which inevitably imposes strong conditions on covariance matrices. However, we assume here only mild additional conditions on the proposed test, which offers much flexibility in practical applications. Additionally, the Welch–Satterthwaite -approximation we adopted can automatically mimic the shape of the null distribution of the proposed test statistic, while the normal approximation cannot achieve the adaptivity. Finally, an extensive simulation study shows that the proposed test has better performance on both size and power compared with existing methods.","PeriodicalId":50112,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonparametric Statistics","volume":"29 1","pages":"239 - 265"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75115241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We formulate a simultaneous function estimation problem based on information pooling across multiple experiments under a low-dimensional structure. A nonparametric reduced rank regression estimator based on the nuclear norm penalisation scheme is proposed to incorporate the low-dimensional structure in the estimation process. A rank of a set of functions is defined in terms of their Fourier coefficients to formally characterise the dependence structure among functions. Minimax upper and lower bounds are established under various asymptotic scenarios to examine the role of the low-rank structure in determining optimal rates of convergence. The results confirm that exploiting the low-rank structure can significantly improve the convergence rate for the simultaneous estimation of multiple functions. The results also imply that the proposed estimator is rate optimal in the minimax sense for the rank-constraint Sobolev class of vector-valued functions.","PeriodicalId":50112,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonparametric Statistics","volume":"57 1","pages":"122 - 144"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76856131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, they include the proportional hazards and proportional odds models as special cases. In this paper, we discuss the situation where one observes left-truncated and interval-censored data, for which it does not seem to exist an established method. For the problem, in contrast to the commonly used conditional approach that may not be efficient, a pairwise pseudo-likelihood method is proposed to recover some missing information in the conditional method. The proposed estimators are proved to be consistent and asymptotically efficient and normal. A simulation study is conducted to assess the empirical performance of the method and suggests that it works well in practical situations.

In the large sample analysis, we specify conditions related to second-order regular variation and divergence rates for the number of upper order statistics, k, used to compute the estimators.

In this paper, we propose to study the kernel version. It's a recursive method based on a stochastic approximation algorithm of the kernel version.

Laketa, Stanislav Nagy","doi":"10.1080/10485252.2023.2236721","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/10485252.2023.2236721","url":null,"abstract":"The halfspace depth is a well studied tool of nonparametric statistics in multivariate spaces, naturally inducing a multivariate generalisation of quantiles. The halfspace depth of a point with respect to a measure is defined as the infimum mass of closed halfspaces that contain the given point. In general, a closed halfspace that attains that infimum does not have to exist. We introduce a flag halfspace - an intermediary between a closed halfspace and its interior. We demonstrate that the halfspace depth can be equivalently formulated also in terms of flag halfspaces, and that there always exists a flag halfspace whose boundary passes through any given point $x$, and has mass exactly equal to the halfspace depth of $x$. Flag halfspaces allow us to derive theoretical results regarding the halfspace depth without the need to differentiate absolutely continuous measures from measures containing atoms, as was frequently done previously. The notion of flag halfspaces is used to state results on the dimensionality of the halfspace median set for random samples. We prove that under mild conditions, the dimension of the sample halfspace median set of $d$-variate data cannot be $d-1$, and that for $d=2$ the sample halfspace median set must be either a two-dimensional convex polygon, or a data point. The latter result guarantees that the computational algorithm for the sample halfspace median form the R package TukeyRegion is exact also in the case when the median set is less-than-full-dimensional in dimension $d=2$.","PeriodicalId":50112,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonparametric Statistics","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73149443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
