β¦ Synopsis
Using nonparametric kernel estimation method, we propose a consistent test for independence of two random vectors based on the L2 norm of difference between the joint density and the product of their marginals. A Monte Carlo study is carried out to examine the finite sample performance of the proposed test.

This paper presents nonparametric tests of independence that can be used to test the independence of p random variables, serial independence for time series, or residuals data. These tests are shown to generalize the classical portmanteau statistics. Applications to both time series and regression r
We present in this paper a new kernel-independent fast multipole method (FMM), named as FKI-FMM, for pairwise particle interactions with translation-invariant kernel functions. FKI-FMM creates, using numerical techniques, sufficiently accurate and compressive representations of a given kernel functi
