Abstract We consider multichannel deconvolution in a periodic setting with long-memory errors under three different scenarios for the convolution operators, i.e., super-smooth, regular-smooth and box-car convolutions. We investigate global performances of linear and hard-thresholded non-linear wavelet estimators for functions over a wide range of Besov spaces and for a variety of loss functions defining the risk. In particular, we obtain upper bounds on convergence rates using the L p -risk ( 1 ≤ p ∞ ) . Contrary to the case where the errors follow independent Brownian motions, it is demonstrated that multichannel deconvolution with errors that follow independent fractional Brownian motions with different Hurst parameters results in a much more involved situation. An extensive finite-sample numerical study is performed to supplement the theoretical findings.
We investigate global performances of non-linear wavelet estimation in regression models with correlated errors. Convergence properties are studied over a wide range of Besov classesB s ;r and for a variety ofL p error measures. We consider error distributions with Long-Range-Dependence parameter ; 0 2 + . Using a vaguelette decomposition of fractional Gaussian noise we Abstract In this paper, we model linear inverse problems with long-range dependence by a fractional Gaussian noise model and study function estimation based on observations from the model. By using two wavelet-vaguelette decompositions, one for the inverse problem which simultaneously quasi-diagonalizes both the operator and the prior information, and one for long-range dependence which decorrelates fractional Gaussian noise, we establish asymptotics for minimax risks, and show that the wavelet shrinkage estimate can be tuned to achieve the minimax convergence rate and significantly outperform linear estimates. Abstract In this paper, a hard thresholding wavelet estimator is constructed for a deconvolution model in a periodic setting that has long-range dependent noise. The estimation paradigm is based on a maxiset method that attains a near optimal rate of convergence for a variety of L p loss functions and a wide variety of Besov spaces in the presence of strong dependence. The effect of long-range dependence is detrimental to the rate of convergence. The method is implemented using a modification of the WaveD -package in R and an extensive numerical study is conducted. The numerical study supplements the theoretical results and compares the LRD estimator with a naive application of the standard WaveD approach. In this article we study function estimation via wavelet shrinkage for data with long-range dependence. We propose a fractional Gaussian noise model to approximate nonparametric regression with long-range dependence and establish asymptotics for minimax risks. Because of long-range dependence, the minimax risk and the minimax linear risk converge to 0 at rates that differ from those for data with independence or short-range dependence. Wavelet estimates with best selection of resolution leveldependent threshold achieve minimax rates over a wide range of spaces. Cross-validation for dependent data is proposed to select the optimal threshold. The wavelet estimates significantly outperform linear estimates. The key to proving the asymptotic results is a wavelet]vaguelette decomposition which decorrelates fractional Gaussian noise. Such wavelet]vaguelette decomposition is also very useful in fractal signal processing.
