Nonparametric Estimation of Isotropic Covariance Function
A Bernstein-polynomial sieve maximum likelihood estimator for isotropic covariance functions valid in R^∞ is shown to be consistent under increasing-domain asymptotics and to achieve lower L∞ and L2 errors than parametric or other nonparametric alternatives in simulations.
