Discussion of ' Beyond mean regression '
نویسنده
چکیده
Methodology for regression beyond the mean has been a goal of researchers for many years. This discussion provides some additional context for the important ideas in the present paper, by recounting some of the historical background to the GAMLSS approach and pointing to the power and appeal of fully probabilistic regression analysis in the setting of Bayesian nonparametrics.

While this entails easy interpretation of the estimated regression effects, it may often lead to incomplete analyses when more complex relationships are indeed present and also bears the risk of false conclusions about the significance/importance of covariates. We will...

متن کاملModelling beyond Regression Functions: an Application of Multimodal Regression to Speed-Flow Data
An enormous amount of publications deals with smoothing in the sense of nonparametric regression. However, nearly all of the literature treats the case where predictors and response are related in the form of a function y = m(x) + noise. In many situations this simple functional model does not capture adequately the essential relation between predictor and response. We show by means of speed-fl...
متن کاملOn tensor product $L$-functions and Langlands functoriality
In the spirit of the Langlands proposal on Beyond Endoscopy we discuss the explicit relation between the Langlands functorial transfers and automorphic $L$-functions. It is well-known that the poles of the $L$-functions have deep impact to the Langlands functoriality. Our discussion also includes the meaning of the central value of the tensor product $L$-functions in terms of the Langl...
