We present the Bernstein-type inequality for widely dependent random variables. By using the Bernstein-type inequality and the truncated method, we further study the strong consistency of estimator of fixed design regression model under widely dependent random variables, which generalizes the corresponding one of independent random variables. As an application, the strong consistency for the nearest neighbor estimator is obtained.

Let {Xn:n≥1} be a sequence of negatively dependent random variables. Based on (X1,…,Xn), in this paper we investigate the rate of pointwise consistency and strong consistency of the nonparametric density estimator proposed by Yu. We extend the correspondent results under the negatively dependent samples.

We study the strong consistency of estimator of fixed design regression model under negatively dependent sequences by using the classical Rosenthal-type inequality and the truncated method. As an application, the strong consistency for the nearest neighbor estimator is obtained.

In this paper, we obtain a Bernstein-type inequality for the sum of self-adjoint centered and geometrically absolutely regular random matrices with bounded largest eigenvalue. This inequality can be viewed as an extension to the matrix setting of the Bernstein-type inequality obtained by Merlevède et al. [Bernstein inequality and moderate deviations under strong mixing conditions, in High Dimensional Probability V: The Luminy Volume, Institute of Mathematical Statistics Collection, Vol. 5 (Institute of Mathematical Statistics, Beachwood, OH, 2009), pp. 273–292.] in the context of real-valued bounded random variables that are geometrically absolutely regular. The proofs rely on decoupling the Laplace transform of a sum on a Cantor-like set of random matrices.
