Seminarium i matematisk statistik fredagen den 11:e december 13.15 i MH227 Anders Malmberg presenterar sitt examensarbete Titel: Fluorescence rejection in Raman spectroscopy by local polynomial kernel regression methods Abstract: The nonparametric kernel regression method has proven to be a good choice when estimating regression functions and their derivatives. Here, this method is used in order to estimate Raman spectra. A local bandwidth selector is used when estimating the measured summarised spectrum and when estimating the fluorescence part of the spectrum the SiZer method might be a useful tool. The localisation of the peaks is decided studying pointwise confidence intervals for the derivative.
