Upcoming Seminar:
Title: Reconstruction of Distributions via Moments
Speaker:
Robert Mnatsakanov,
Department of Statistics, West Virginia University
Abstract:
The problem of recovering an unknown cumulative distribution function F
and its density function f from its moments will be discussed. Under the mild
conditions on the target distribution F the rate of approximations for proposed
constructions are derived. The extension of the results to the multivariate
Hausdorff moment problem will be presented as well. Several indirect models,
e.g., the mixtures and the image reconstruction from its projections will be
considered. In particular, the approximation rate of a new Radon inversion
is obtained. Finally, the comparison of theoretical and approximated curves will
be illustrated via the simulations.
