In this paper, we consider density estimation and regression for interval-valued data, a special type of symbolic data, common in astronomy and official statistics. We propose kernel estimators with adaptive bandwidths to account for variability of each interval. Specifically, we derive cross-validation bandwidth selectors for density estimation and extend the Nadaraya–Watson estimator for regression with interval data. We assess the performance of the proposed methods in comparison with existing kernel methods by extensive simulation studies and real data analysis.","PeriodicalId":50112,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonparametric Statistics","volume":"21 1","pages":"455 - 473"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81559954","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}

This extends the scope of applicability of some methods for statistical inference under order restrictions, since the IOR model is compatible with heavy-tailed and bathtub distributions. We study a strongly uniformly consistent estimator of the cumulative distribution function of interest under the IOR constraint. Numerical evidence shows that this estimator often outperforms the classic empirical distribution function when the underlying model does belong to the IOR family. We also study two different tests, aimed at detecting deviations from the IOR property, and we establish their consistency. The performance of these tests is also evaluated through simulations.","PeriodicalId":50112,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonparametric Statistics","volume":"8 4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78387434","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}

Besides, the strong consistency for the Gaussian quasi maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) in the time-varying ARCH parameter is established as well. Moreover, in terms of the existence of the trend in the data, two major nonparametric trend estimators, B-spline and kernel estimators, are shown to be appropriate for the strong consistency results.","PeriodicalId":50112,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonparametric Statistics","volume":"99 1","pages":"373 - 396"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83605981","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}

Hence, a discontinuity test of density is used for RDD. In previous studies, tests using difference estimators between the left- and right-hand limits of a density at a (potential) discontinuity point were suggested. In the present paper, a new discontinuity test based on direct density ratio estimation using a beta kernel is proposed. By using the ratio estimator in the proposed test statistic, rather than a difference estimator, the characteristic form of the asymptotic variance of the test statistic is obtained. Consequently, the power of the proposed test is shown to increase when used as a one-tailed test. Simulation studies illustrate the larger power of the proposed test when used as a one-tailed test.","PeriodicalId":50112,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonparametric Statistics","volume":"11 1","pages":"323 - 354"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88283660","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}

More recently they have been generalised to the case where there may exist a cured subgroup or the censoring may be informative. In this paper, we consider a more complicated and general situation where both a cured subgroup and informative censoring, or more specifically informative interval censoring, exist. As pointed out in the literature, the analysis that fails to take into account either the cured subgroup or the informative censoring can yield biased estimation or misleading conclusions. For the problem, a three-component mixture cure model is presented and we develop a two-step estimation procedure with the use of B-splines to approximate unknown functions. The proposed approach is quite flexible and can be easily implemented. Also the proposed estimators of regression parameters are shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal. An extensive simulation study is conducted and suggests that the method works well for practical situations. Furthermore a real application is provided to illustrate the proposed methodology.","PeriodicalId":50112,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonparametric Statistics","volume":"21 1","pages":"283 - 301"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88217244","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 the literature related to the GMLE based on TIC data, there are several issues that have not been properly settled in both methodology and theory including: (1) innermost intervals based on the TIC data are not correctly formulated and they lead to inconsistent estimators which are not the GMLE; and (2) the consistency of the GMLE has not been established.
