A tutorial on kernel density estimation and recent advances

YC Chen - Biostatistics & Epidemiology, 2017 - Taylor & Francis
This tutorial provides a gentle introduction to kernel density estimation (KDE) and recent
advances regarding confidence bands and geometric/topological features. We begin with a …

Manifold learning: What, how, and why

M Meilă, H Zhang - Annual Review of Statistics and Its …, 2024 - annualreviews.org
Manifold learning (ML), also known as nonlinear dimension reduction, is a set of methods to
find the low-dimensional structure of data. Dimension reduction for large, high-dimensional …

Topological data analysis

L Wasserman - Annual Review of Statistics and Its Application, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Topological data analysis (TDA) can broadly be described as a collection of data analysis
methods that find structure in data. These methods include clustering, manifold estimation …
