      [Abstract]: A crankshaft is a mechanical component of an engine that performs a conversion of an alternative movement of a piston in a rotational motion of a shaft. It is a critical part and one of the most expensive of ...

    • Bagging cross-validated bandwidths with application to big data 

      Barreiro-Ures, Daniel; Cao, Ricardo; Francisco-Fernández, Mario; Hart, Jeffrey D. (2021)
      Hall & Robinson (2009) proposed and analysed the use of bagged cross-validation to choose the band-width of a kernel density estimator. They established that bagging greatly reduces the noise inherent in ordinary ...

    • Bandwidth Selection for Prediction in Regression 

      Barbeito, Inés; Cao, Ricardo; Sperlich, Stefan (M D P I AG, 2019-08-05)
      [Abstract] There exist many different methods to choose the bandwidth in kernel regression. If, however, the target is regression based prediction for samples or populations with potentially different distributions, then ...

    • Bandwidth selection for statistical matching and prediction 

      Barbeito Cal, Inés; Cao, Ricardo; Sperlich, Stephan (Springer, 2022)
      [Abstract]: While there exist many bandwidth selectors for estimation, bandwidth selection for statistical matching and prediction has hardly been studied so far. We introduce a computationally attractive selector for ...

    • Big-But-Biased Data Analytics for Air Quality 

      Borrajo, Laura; Cao, Ricardo (MDPI AG, 2020-09-22)
      [Abstract] Air pollution is one of the big concerns for smart cities. The problem of applying big data analytics to sampling bias in the context of urban air quality is studied in this paper. A nonparametric estimator ...

    • Bootstrap Bandwidth Selection and Confidence Regions for Double Smoothed Default Probability Estimation 

      Peláez, Rebeca; Cao, Ricardo; Vilar, Juan M. (MDPI, 2022)
      [Abstract] For a fixed time, t, and a horizon time, b, the probability of default (PD) measures the probability that an obligor, that has paid his/her credit until time t, runs into arrears not later that time t+b. This ...

    • Bootstrap Selector for the Smoothing Parameter of Beran’s Estimator 

      Peláez, Rebeca; Cao, Ricardo; Vilar, Juan M. (MDPI, 2021)
      [Abstract] This work proposes a resampling technique to approximate the smoothing parameter of Beran’s estimator. It is based on resampling by the smoothed bootstrap and minimising the bootstrap approximation of the mean ...

    • Bootstrap testing for cross-correlation under low firing activity 

      González Montoro, Aldana María; Cao, Ricardo; Espinosa, Nelson; Cudeiro, Javier; Mariño Alfonso, Xurxo (Springer, 2015-04-14)
      [Abstract] A new cross-correlation synchrony index for neural activity is proposed. The index is based on the integration of the kernel estimation of the cross-correlation function. It is used to test for the dynamic ...
