<p><p>Traditional procedures in the statistical forecasting of time series, which are proved to be optimal under the hypothetical model, are often not robust under relatively small distortions (misspecification, outliers, missing values, etc.), leading to actual forecast risks (mean square errors of
In this book the authors consider so-called ill-posed problems and stability in statistics. The objective of the authors of this book is to identify statistical problems of this type, find their stable variant, and propose alternative versions of numerous theorems in mathematical statistics.
<p>This book is concerned with important problems of robust (stable) statistical patΒ tern recognition when hypothetical model assumptions about experimental data are violated (disturbed). Pattern recognition theory is the field of applied mathematics in which prinΒ ciples and methods are constructe
