We are interested in the problem of robust parametric estimation of a density from n i.i.d observations. By using a practice-oriented procedure based on robust tests, we build an estimator for which we establish non-asymptotic risk bounds with respect to the Hellinger distance under mild assumptions on the parametric model. We show that the...

We present two data-driven procedures to estimate the transition density of an homogeneous Markov chain. The first yields to a piecewise constant estimator on a suitable random partition. By using an Hellinger-type loss, we establish non-asymptotic risk bounds for our estimator when the square root of the transition density belongs to possibly...

We observe $n$ inhomogeneous Poisson processes with covariates and aim at estimating their intensities. We assume that the intensity of each Poisson process is of the form $s (\cdot, x)$ where $x$ is a covariate and where $s$ is an unknown function. We propose a model selection approach where the models are used to approximate the multivariate...

This thesis deals with the estimation of functions from tests in three statistical settings. We begin by studying the problem of estimating the intensities of Poisson processes with covariates. We prove a general model selection theorem from which we derive non-asymptotic risk bounds under various assumptions on the target function. We then...

The aim of this paper is to present a new estimation procedure that can be applied in many statistical frameworks including density and regression and which leads to both robust and optimal (or nearly optimal) estimators. In density estimation, they asymptotically coincide with the celebrated maximum likelihood estimators at least when the...
