Moments of scores
A talk in the Geometric Analysis Seminar series by
Sergey Bobkov from University of Minnesota
Abstract: |
If a random variable $X$ has an absolutely continuous density $f(x)$, its score is defined to be the random variable
$\rho(X) = f'(X)/f(X)$, where $f'(x)$ is the derivative of $f$. We will discuss upper bounds on the moments of the scores, especially in the case when $X$ represents the sum of independent random variables. |
