We introduce a high breakdown point estimator referred to as data partitioning robust regression estimator (DPR). Since the DPR is obtained by partitioning observations into a finite number of subsets, it has no computational problem unlike the previous robust regression estimators. Empirical and extensive simulation studies show that the DPR is superior to the previous robust estimators. This is much so in large samples.

A generalized Stein-rule estimator of the vector of regression coefficients in linear regression model is considered and its properties are analyzed according to the criterion of Pitman nearness. A comparative study shows that the generalized Stein-rule estimator representing a class of estimators contains particular members which are better than the usual Stein-rule estimator according to the Pitman closeness.

We consider an estimation of discontinuous variance function in nonparametric heteroscedastic random design regression model. We first propose estimators of a change point and jump size in variance function and then construct an estimator of entire variance function. We examine the rates of convergence of these estimators and give results on their asymptotics. Numerical work reveals that the effectiveness of change point analysis in variance function estimation is quite significant.

We investigate some statistical properties of several dierence-based error variance estimators in nonparametric regression model. Most of existing dierence-based methods are developed under asymptotical properties. Our focus is on the exact form of mean and variance for the lag-k dierence-based estimator and the second-order dierence-based estimator in a nite sample size. Our approach can be extended to Tong's estimator (2005) and be helpful to obtain optimal k.

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.

We consider the .regression model H = h(x) + E, where h is an unknown smooth regression function ard E is the random error with unknown distribution F. in this context we present and eamine the asymptotic behavior of some nonparametric estimators for the percentile functions ζ$\_$p/(x)+ζ$\_$p/, where 0 < p < 1 and ζ$\_$p/ = inf {x : F{x} $\geq$ p}

The method of generalized estimating equations (GEEs) provides consistent esti- mates of the regression parameters in a marginal regression model for longitudinal data, even when the working correlation model is misspecified (Liang and Zeger, 1986). In this paper we compare the estimators of parameters in GEE approach. We consider two aspects: coverage probabilites and efficiency. We adopted to ordinal responses th results derived from binary outcomes.

In successive sampling on two occasions the problem of estimating a finite population quantile has been considered. The theory developed aims at providing the optimum estimates by combining (i) three double sampling estimators viz. ratio-type, product-type and regression-type, from the matched portion of the sample and (ii) a simple quantile based on a random sample from the unmatched portion of the sample on the second occasion. The approximate variance formulae of the suggested estimators have been obtained. Optimal matching fraction is discussed. A simulation study is carried out in order to compare the three estimators and direct estimator. It is found that the performance of the regression-type estimator is the best among all the estimators discussed here.

In survival analysis, the Nelson-Aalen estimator and Peterson estimator are often used to estimate a cumulative hazard function in randomly right censored data. In this paper, we suggested the smoothing version of the cumulative hazard function estimators using a Bezier curve. We compare them with the existing estimators including a kernel smooth version of the Nelson-Aalen estimator and the Peterson estimator in the sense of mean integrated square error to show through numerical studies that the proposed estimators are better than existing ones. Further, we applied our method to the Cox regression where covariates are used as predictors and suggested a survival function estimation at a given covariate.
