  • Abstract
    We consider the situation where the parameters θ of a linear regression model have to be estimated from observations corrupted by an additive noise with unknown distribution f. Since maximum likelihood estimation cannot be used, we estimate θ by minimizing the entropy of a kernel estimate of f, constructed from the residuals. An example of parameter estimation in the presence of interference with random binary signals is presented
