A definition of selfinformative Bayes carriers or limits is given as a description of an approach to noninformative Bayes estimation in non- and semiparametric models. It takes the posterior w.r.t. a prior as a new prior and repeats this procedure again and again. A main objective of the paper...

This survey is devoted to the statistical analysis of duration models and point processes. The first section introduces specific concepts and definitions for single-spell duration models. Section two is devoted to the presentation of conditional duration models which incorporate the effects of...

In this paper we propose a novel method to construct confidence intervals in a class of linear inverse problems. First, point estimators are obtained via a spectral cut-off method depending on a regularisation parameter », that determines the bias of the estimator. Next, the proposed confidence...
