The Cross-Entropy Method for Estimation
cross-entropy estimation rare events importance sampling adaptive Monte Carlo zero-variance distribution
2015/7/6
This chapter describes how difficult statistical estimation problems can often be solved efficiently by means of the cross-entropy (CE) method. The CE method can be viewed as an adaptive importance sa...
In this note the relation between the range-renewal speed and entropy for i.i.d. models is discussed.
For the evaluation of information flow in bivariate time series, information measures have been employed, such as the transfer entropy (TE), the symbolic transfer entropy (STE), defined similarly to T...
Testing Exponentiality Based on Rényi Entropy With Progressively Type-II Censored Data
Renyi Entropy hazard function Monte Carlo simulation order statistics Type-II progressively censored data
2013/4/28
We express the joint R\'enyi entropy of progressively censored order statistics in terms of an incomplete integral of the hazard function, and provide a simple estimate of the joint R\'enyi entropy of...

2013/4/27
The concept of refinement from probability elicitation is considered for proper scoring rules. Taking directions from the axioms of probability, refinement is further clarified using a Hilbert space i...

2013/4/27
The R\'enyi entropy is a generalization of the Shannon entropy and is widely used in mathematical statistics and applied sciences for quantifying the uncertainty in a probability distribution. We cons...
Variance estimation and asymptotic confidence bands for the mean estimator of sampled functional data with high entropy unequal probability sampling designs

2012/11/23
For fixed size sampling designs with high entropy it is well known that the variance of the Horvitz-Thompson estimator can be approximated by the H\'ajek formula. The interest of this asymptotic varia...
