چکیده

An affine equivariant version of the nonparametric spatial conditional median (SCM) is constructed, using an adaptive transformation-retransformation (TR) procedure. The relative performance of SCM estimates, computed with and without applying the TR—procedure, are compared through simulation. Also included is the vector of coordinate conditional, kernelbased, medians (VCCMs). The methodology is illustrated via an empirical data set. It is shown that the TR—SCM estimator is more efficient than the SCM estimator, even when the amount of contamination in the data set is as high as 25%. The TR—VCCMand VCCM estimators lack efficiency, and consequently should not be used in practice.

Multivariate Regression Estimation : Local Polynomial Fitting for Time Series

We consider the estimation of the multivariate regression function m (x 1 , . . . ,xd) = E [ψ (Yd) | X 1 = x 1 , . . . ,Xd = xd], and its partial derivatives, for stationary random processes {Yi ,Xi} using local higher-order polynomial fitting. Particular cases of ψ yield estimation of the conditional mean, conditional moments and conditional distributions. Joint asymptotic normality is establi...

Joint estimation of sparse multivariate regression and conditional graphical models

Multivariate regression model is a natural generalization of the classical univariate regression model for fitting multiple responses. In this paper, we propose a highdimensional multivariate conditional regression model for constructing sparse estimates of the multivariate regression coefficient matrix that accounts for the dependency structure among the multiple responses. The proposed method...

Bayesian semiparametric copula estimation with application to psychiatric genetics.

This paper proposes a semiparametric methodology for modeling multivariate and conditional distributions. We first build a multivariate distribution whose dependence structure is induced by a Gaussian copula and whose marginal distributions are estimated nonparametrically via mixtures of B-spline densities. The conditional distribution of a given variable is obtained in closed form from this mu...

Nonparametric multivariate conditional distribution and quantile regression

In nonparametric multivariate regression analysis, one usually seeks methods to reduce the dimensionality of the regression function to bypass the difficulty caused by the curse of dimensionality. We study nonparametric estimation of multivariate conditional distribution and quantile regression via local univariate quadratic estimation of partial derivatives of bivariate copulas. Without restri...

MULTIVARIATE LOCAL POLYNOMIAL REGRESSION FOR TIME SERIES: UNIFORM STRONG CONSISTENCY AND RATES by

Local high-order polynomial fitting is employed for the estimation of the multivariate regression function m (x 1 , . . . ,xd) = E [ψ (Yd) | X 1 = x 1 , . . . ,Xd = xd], and of its partial derivatives, for stationary random processes {Yi , Xi}. The function ψ may be selected to yield estimates of the conditional mean, conditional moments and conditional distributions. Uniform strong consistency...
