A new statistical method for estimating density ratios has been developed, offering optimal rates of convergence over Hölder classes of arbitrary smoothness. This novel local-polynomial estimator is effective even at the boundary of the support of the distribution and provides concentration inequalities useful for classification tasks. The research also details methods for estimating partial derivatives of the density ratio and achieving asymptotic normality for these estimators, enabling data-driven variance estimation. AI
IMPACT This research could improve classification algorithms and density estimation techniques, potentially impacting AI systems that rely on accurate statistical modeling.
