Local smoothing jump detection procedure is a popular method for detecting jump locations and the performance of the jump detector heavily depends on the choice of the bandwidth. However, little work has been done on this issue. In this paper, we propose the bootstrap bandwidth selection method which can be used for any kernel-based or local polynomial-based jump detector. The proposed bandwidth selection method is fully data-adaptive and its performance is evaluated through a simulation study and a real data example.

Nonparametric regression technique using kernel estimator is an attractive alternative that has received some attention, recently. The kernel estimate depends on two quantities which have to be provided by the user : the kernel function and the bandwidth. However, the more difficult problem is how to find an appropriate bandwidth which controls the amount of smoothing (see Silverman, 1986). Thus, in practical situation, it is certainly desirable to determine an appropriate bandwidth in some automatic fashion. Thus, the problem is to find a data-driven or adaptive (i.e., depending only on the data and then directly computable in practice) bandwidth that performs reasonably well relative to the best theoretical bandwidth. In this paper, we introduce a relation between bias and variance of mean square error. Thus, we present a simple and effective algorithm for selecting local bandwidths in kernel regression.

We investigate the mathematical background, statistical methodology, and the teaching of computer-software field using smoothing methodology in this paper. Also we investigate conception and methodology of histogram, kernel density estimator, adaptive kernel estimator, bandwidth selection based on mathematics and statistics.

We considered the bandwidth selection method which has asymptotic optimal convergence rate $n^{-1/2}$ in kernel regression function estimation. For the proposed bandwidth selection, we considered Mean Averaged Squared Error as a performance criterion and its Taylor expansion to the fourth order. Then we estimate the bandwidth which minimizes the estimated approximate value of MASE. Finally we show the relative convergence rate between optimal bandwidth and proposed bandwidth.

Suppose we observe a set of data (X$_1$,Y$_1$(, …, (X$_{n}$,Y$_{n}$) and use the Nadaraya-Watson regression estimator to estimate m(x)=E(Y│X=x). in this article bandwidth selection problem for the Nadaraya-Watson regression estimator is investigated. In particular cross validation method based on average square error(ASE) is considered. Theoretical results here include a central limit theorem that quantifies convergence rates of the bandwidth selector.tor.

The cross-validation is a popular method to select bandwidth in all types of kernel estimation. The maximum likelihood cross-validation, the least squares cross-validation and biased cross-validation have been proposed for bandwidth selection in kernel density estimation. In the case that the probability density function has a discontinuity point, Huh (2012) proposed a method of bandwidth selection using the maximum likelihood cross-validation. In this paper, two forms of cross-validation with the one-sided kernel function are proposed for bandwidth selection to estimate the location and jump size of the discontinuity point of density. These methods are motivated by the least squares cross-validation and the biased cross-validation. By simulated examples, the finite sample performances of two proposed methods with the one of Huh (2012) are compared.

In the case that the probability density function has a discontinuity point, Huh (2002) estimated the location and jump size of the discontinuity point based on the difference between the right and left kernel density estimators using the one-sided kernel function. In this paper, we consider the cross-validation, made by the right and left maximum likelihood cross-validations, for the bandwidth selection in order to estimate the location and jump size of the discontinuity point. This method is motivated by the one-sided cross-validation of Hart and Yi (1998). The finite sample performance is illustrated by simulated example.

When a spatial regression model that uses kernel density values as a dependent variable is applied to retail business data, a unique model cannot be selected because kernel density values change following kernel bandwidths. To overcome this problem, this paper suggests how to use the point pattern analysis, especially the L-index to select a unique spatial regression model. In this study, kernel density values of retail business are computed by the bandwidth, the distance of the maximum L-index and used as the dependent variable of spatial regression model. To test this procedure, we apply it to meeting room business data in Seoul, Korea. As a result, a spatial error model (SEM) is selected between two popular spatial regression models, a spatial lag model and a spatial error model. Also, a unique SEM based on the real distribution of retail business is selected. We confirm that there is a trade-off between the goodness of fit of the SEM and the real distribution of meeting room business over the bandwidth of maximum L-index.

In common with workers in hydrologic fields, scientists and engineers relate one variable to two or more other variables for purposes of predication, optimization, and control. Statistics methods have improved to establish such relationships. Regression, as it is called, is indeed the most commonly used statistics technique in hydrologic fields; relationship between the monitored variable stage and the corresponding discharges(rating curve). Regression methods expressed in the form of mathematical equations which has parameters, so called parametric methods. some times, the establishment of parameters is complicated and uncertain. Many non-parametric regression methods which have not parameters, have been proposed and studied. The most popular of these are kernel regression method. Kernel regression offer a way of estimation the regression function without the specification of a parametric model. This paper conducted comparisons of some bandwidth selection methods which are using the least squares and cross-validation.

This paper considers the estimation of the long memory parameter in nonparametric regression with strongly correlated errors. The key idea is to minimize a unified mean squared error of long memory parameter to select both kernel bandwidth and the number of frequencies used in exact local Whittle estimation. A unified mean squared error framework is more natural because it provides both goodness of fit and measure of strong dependence. The block bootstrap is applied to evaluate the mean squared error. Finite sample performance using Monte Carlo simulations shows the closest performance to the oracle. The proposed method outperforms existing methods especially when dependency and sample size increase. The proposed method is also illustreated to the volatility of exchange rate between Korean Won for US dollar.
