AbstractCredibility weighting is helpful in many insurance applications where sparse data crave information from other sources of data. In this paper we aim at estimating a hazard curve using the nonparametric kernel method, where a credibility weighting principle is used locally, so that areas of sparse data for one subgroup can be alleviated by available information from other subgroups. The credibility estimator is found through a Hilbert space projection formulation of Buhlmann-Straub's credibility approach.

We propose a reproducing kernel method for solving the KdV equation with initial condition based on the reproducing kernel theory. The exact solution is represented in the form of series in the reproducing kernel Hilbert space. Some numerical examples have also been studied to demonstrate the accuracy of the present method. Results of numerical examples show that the presented method is effective.

In the healthcare industry, sources look after different customers with diverse diseases and complications. Thus, at the source, a great amount of data in all aspects like status of the patients, behaviour of the diseases, etc. are collected, and now it becomes the job of the practitioner at source to use the available data for diagnosing the diseases accurately and then prescribe the relevant treatment. Machine learning techniques are useful to deal with large datasets, with an aim to produce meaningful information from the raw information for the purpose of decision making. The inharmonious behavior of the data is the motivation behind the development of new tools and demonstrates the available information to some meaningful information for decision making. As per the literature, healthcare of patients can be analyzed through machine learning tools, and henceforth, in the article, a Bayesian kernel method for medical decision-making problems has been discussed, which suits the purpose of researchers in the enhancement of their research in the domain of medical decision making.

This paper is concerned with a technique for solving a class of nonlinear systems of partial differential equations (PDEs) in the reproducing kernel Hilbert space. The analytical solution is represented in the form of series. An iterative method is given to obtain the approximate solution. The convergence analysis is established theoretically. The proposed method is successfully used for solving a coupled system of viscous Burgers’ equations and a nonlinear hyperbolic system. Performance of the method is tested in terms of various error norms. In the case of non-availability of exact solution, it is compared with the existing methods.

This paper presents a set of normality general results for kernel weighted averages. We extend existing literature for independent data (Yao, 2007) to stationary dependent longitudinal data. The asymptotic properties of proposed weighted averages are investigate under α-mixing conditions. These results are useful for covariance function estimation based on nonparametric kernel method.
