摘要
In the nonparametric Gaussian sequence space model an l(2)-confidence ball C-n is constructed that adapts to unknown smoothness and Sobolev-norm of the infinite-dimensional parameter to be estimated. The confidence ball has exact and honest asymptotic coverage over appropriately defined 'self-similar' parameter spaces. It is shown by information-theoretic methods that this 'self-similarity' condition is weakest possible. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
