In this paper, twicing technique for the improvement of asymptotic boundary bias in nonparametric regression is considered. Asymptotic mean squared errors of the nonparametric regression estimators are derived at the boundary region by twicing the Nadaraya-Waston and local linear smoothing. Asymptotic biases of the resulting estimators are of order$h^2$and$h^4$ respectively.

In this article the fuzzy number rank and the fuzzy rank transformation method are introduced in order to analyse the non-parametric fuzzy regression model which cannot be described as a specific functional form such as the crisp data and fuzzy data as a independent and dependent variables respectively. The effectiveness of fuzzy rank transformation methods is compared with other methods through the numerical examples.

We present formula for detecting influential observations on the smoothing parameter in smoothing spline. Further, we express them as functions of basic building blocks such as residuals and leverage, and compare it with the local influence approach by Thomas (1991). An example based on a real data set is given.

The smoothing parameter or bandwidth is crucial to performance of the kernel based regression estimator. So the choice of a "optimal" smoothing parameter produce a single curve estimate. If a single estimate is replaced by a family of estimates, it become easy that we understand what varies with choice of the smoothing parameter. This paper suggests the threshold of the maximum bandwidth and the number of the family members in the regression context.n context.

The estimation of odds ratio and corresponding confidence intervals for case-control data have been done by traditional generalized linear models which assumed that the logarithm of odds ratio is linearly related to risk factors. We adapt a lower-dimensional approximation of Gu and Kim (2002) to provide a faster computation in nonparametric method for the estimation of odds ratio by allowing flexibility of the estimating function and its Bayesian confidence interval under the Bayes model for the lower-dimensional approximations. Simulation studies showed that taking larger samples with the lower-dimensional approximations help to improve the smoothing spline estimates of odds ratio in this settings. The proposed method can be used to analyze case-control data in medical studies.

We consider a nonparametric AR(1) model with nonparametric ARCH(1) errors. In order to estimate the unknown function of the ARCH part, we apply the stationary bootstrap procedure, which is characterized by geometrically distributed random length of bootstrap blocks and has the advantage of capturing the dependence structure of the original data. The proposed method is composed of four steps: the first step estimates the AR part by a typical kernel smoothing to calculate AR residuals, the second step estimates the ARCH part via the Nadaraya-Watson kernel from the AR residuals to compute ARCH residuals, the third step applies the stationary bootstrap procedure to the ARCH residuals, and the fourth step defines the stationary bootstrapped Nadaraya-Watson estimator for the ARCH function with the stationary bootstrapped residuals. We prove the asymptotic validity of the stationary bootstrap estimator for the unknown ARCH function by showing the same limiting distribution as the Nadaraya-Watson estimator in the second step.

Boente and Fraiman [2] studied robust nonparametric estimators for regression or autoregression problems when the observations exhibit serial dependence. They established strong consistency of two families of M-type robust equivariant estimators for $\phi$-mixing processes. In this paper we extend their results to weaker $\alpha$$alpha$-mixing processes.

In additive nonparametric regression, Linton and Nielsen (1995) showed that the marginal integration when applied to the local linear smoother produces a rate-optimal estimator of each univariate component function for the case where the dimension of the predictor is two. In this paper we give new formulas for the bias and variance of the marginal integration regression estimators which are valid for boundary areas as well as fixed interior points, and show the local linear marginal integration estimator is in fact rate-optimal when the dimension of the predictor is less than or equal to four. We extend the results to the case of the local polynomial smoother, too.

A regression function in generalized linear model may have a discontinuity/change point at unknown location. In order to estimate the location of the discontinuity point and its jump size, the strategy is to use a nonparametric approach based on one-sided kernel weighted local-likelihood functions. Weak convergences of the proposed estimators are established. The finite-sample performances of the proposed estimators with practical aspects are illustrated by simulated examples.
