This definition is technically called Q-convergence, short for quotient-convergence, and the rates and orders are called rates and orders of Q-convergence when that technical specificity is needed. § R-convergence , below, is an appropriate alternative when this limit does not exist.
Sieve estimators have been used extensively for estimating density functions in high-dimensional spaces such as in Positron emission tomography (PET). The first exploitation of Sieves in PET for solving the maximum-likelihood image reconstruction problem was by Donald Snyder and Michael Miller, [1] where they stabilized the time-of-flight PET problem originally solved by Shepp and Vardi. [2]
The Goldston–Pintz–Yıldırım sieve (also called GPY sieve or GPY method) is a sieve method and variant of the Selberg sieve with generalized, multidimensional sieve weights. The sieve led to a series of important breakthroughs in analytic number theory. It is named after the mathematicians Dan Goldston, János Pintz and Cem Yıldırım. [1]
A sieve analysis (or gradation test) is a practice or procedure used in geology, civil engineering, [1] and chemical engineering [2] to assess the particle size distribution (also called gradation) of a granular material by allowing the material to pass through a series of sieves of progressively smaller mesh size and weighing the amount of material that is stopped by each sieve as a fraction ...
In number theory, the fundamental lemma of sieve theory is any of several results that systematize the process of applying sieve methods to particular problems. Halberstam & Richert [ 1 ] : 92–93 write:
According to the Unified Soil Classification System, a #4 sieve (4 openings per inch) having 4.75 mm opening size separates sand from gravel and a #200 sieve with an 0.075 mm opening separates sand from silt and clay. According to the British standard, 0.063 mm is the boundary between sand and silt, and 2 mm is the boundary between sand and gravel.
The rate of convergence of the MSE to 0 is the necessarily the same as the MISE rate noted previously O(n −4/(d+4)), hence the convergence rate of the density estimator to f is O p (n −2/(d+4)) where O p denotes order in probability. This establishes pointwise convergence.
IRLS can be used for ℓ 1 minimization and smoothed ℓ p minimization, p < 1, in compressed sensing problems. It has been proved that the algorithm has a linear rate of convergence for ℓ 1 norm and superlinear for ℓ t with t < 1, under the restricted isometry property, which is generally a sufficient condition for sparse solutions.
