The proposed algorithm adaptively computes the matching cost using a temporal weighting function, which is obtained by block-based moving object detection and motion estimation with variable block sizes. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm improves the temporal consistency of the depth video and reduces by about 38% both the flickering artefact in the synthesized view and the number of coding bits for depth video coding.展开更多

This paper investigates portfolio selection under Mean-CVa R model in a nonparametric framework with α-mixing data as financial data tends to be dependent. Many works have provided some insight into the performance of portfolio selection from the aspects of data and simulation while in this paper we concentrate on the asymptotic behaviors of the optimal solutions and risk estimation in theory.展开更多

Based on double orthogonal projections, an identification algorithm is developed to eliminate the influence of colored noise for consistent estimation of the extended observability matrix of the plant state-space model. A shift-invariant approach is then given to retrieve the system matrices from the estimated extended observability matrix. The persistent excitation condition for consistent estimation of the extended observability matrix is analyzed. Moreover, a numerical algorithm is given to compute the estimation error of the estimated extended observability matrix. Two illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and merit of the proposed method.展开更多

The asymptotic consistency and normality of this estimator are proved and the variance expression is calculated. Two bootstrap procedures are employed in the simulation study,where the latter bootstrap from Zeng and Lin(2008) is 4000 times faster than the former naive one, and the numerical results in both methods show that our estimating approach works well. A real data example is used to illustrate its application.展开更多

Based on the estimators of parameters and their asymptotic properties, a Wald-type test is constructed. It is consistent against global alternatives and is sensitive to the local alternatives converging to the null hypothesis at parametric rates, a fastest possibly rate for goodness-of-fit testing. Moreover, a simulation study shows the performance of the test is good. The procedure also applies to a real data.展开更多

The estimators have the form of the Mantel-Haenszel estimator of odds ratios, and it is shown that the estimators are dually cousistent, and asymptotically normal. Dually consistently estimated covariance matrices of the proposed estimators are also developed. An example is given to illustrate the estimators.展开更多
