We investigate the unbiasedness and consistency as the statistical properties of density estimators. We show histogram, kernel density estimation, and local adaptive smoothing as density smoothing in this paper. Also, the early and recent research on nonparametric density estimation is described and discussed.

The purpose of this paper is to study of data-driven smoothing goodness of it test, when the hypothesis is complete. The smoothing goodness of fit test statistic by nonparametric function estimation techniques is proposed in this paper. The results of simulation studies for he powers of show that the proposed test statistic compared well to other.

Predicting a variable using other variables in a large data set is a very difficult task. It involves selecting variables to include in a model and determining the shape of the relationship between variables. Nonparametric regression such as smoothing splines and neural networks are widely-used methods for such a task. We propose an alternative method based on a genetic algorithm(GA) to solve this problem. We applied GA to regression splines, a nonparametric regression method, to estimate functional forms between variables. Using several simulated and real data, our technique is shown to outperform traditional nonparametric methods such as smoothing splines and neural networks.

Small area estimation is a statistical inference method to overcome the large variance due to the small sample size allocated in a small area. Recently some nonparametric estimators have been applied to small area estimation. In this study, we suggest a nonparametric mixed effect small area estimator using kernel smoothing and compare the small area estimators using labor statistics.

In this paper we propose a goodness-of-fit test statistic for testing the (null) parametric model versus the (alternative) nonparametric model. Most of existing nonparametric test statistics are based on the residuals which are obtained by regressing the data to a parametric model. Our test is based on the bootstrap estimator of the probability that the smoothing parameter estimator is infinite when fitting residuals to cubic smoothing spline. Power performance of this test is investigated and is compared with many other tests. Illustrative examples based on real data sets are given.

We have considered the study of local influence for smoothing parameter estimates in nonparametric regression model. Practically, generalized cross validation(GCV) does not work well in the presence of data perturbation. Thus we have proposed local influence measures for GCV estimates and examined effects of diagnostic by above measures.

In this paper we propose a nonparametric lack of fit test based on the bootstrap method for testing the null parametric linear model by using linear smoothers. Most of existing nonparametric test statistics are based on the residuals. Our test is based on the centered bootstrap residuals. Power performance of proposed bootstrap lack of fit test is investigated via Monte carlo simulation.

Smoothing parameter or bandwidth plays a key role in nonparametric classification based on kernel density estimation. We consider choosing smoothing parameter in nonparametric classification, which optimize the Bayes risk. Hall and Kang (2005) clarified the theoretical properties of smoothing parameter in terms of minimizing Bayes risk and derived the optimal order of it. Bootstrap method was used in their exploring numerical properties. We compare cross-validation and bootstrap method numerically in terms of optimal order of bandwidth. Effects on misclassification rate are also examined. We confirm that bootstrap method is superior to cross-validation in both cases.

We consider methods of estimating a binary regression function using a nonparametric kernel estimation when there is only one covariate. For this, the Nadaraya-Watson estimation method using single and double bandwidths are used. For choosing a proper smoothing amount, the cross-validation and plug-in methods are compared. In the real data analysis for case study, German credit data and heart disease data are used. We examine whether the nonparametric estimation for binary regression function is successful with the smoothing parameter using the above two approaches, and the performance is compared.

Semiparametric and nonparametric small area estimations have been studied to overcome a large variance due to a small sample size allocated in a small area. In this study, we investigate semiparametric and nonparametric mixed effect small area estimators using penalized spline and kernel smoothing methods respectively and compare their performances using labor statistics.
