| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Estimating the derivatives of probability density functions is one of the important challenges in statistical data analysis. To estimate the derivatives, a naive approach is first to estimate the probability density function from data, and then to compute its derivatives. However, this approach can be unreliable because a good density estimator does not necessarily mean a good density derivative estimator. To overcome this challenge, we took a different approach that directly estimates density derivatives without going through density estimation. Based on the direct approach, we proposed two methods to estimate the derivatives of conditional density functions and the ratios of density derivatives to its density. With the proposed methods, we developed supervised dimensionality reduction and density ridge estimation methods.
