Adaptive estimation in the nonparametric random coefficients binary choice model by needlet thresholding

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In the random coefficients binary choice model, a binary variable equals 1 iff an index is positive.The vectors X and are independent and belong to the sphere mathbbSd1 in mathbbRd.We prove lower bounds on the minimax risk for estimation of the density over Besov bodies where the loss is a power of the Lp(mathbbSd1) norm for 1lepleinfty. We show that a hard thresholding estimator based on a needlet expansion with data-driven thresholds achieves these lower bounds up to logarithmic factors.
