摘要

Nonasymptotic risk bounds are provided for maximum likelihood-type isotonic estimators of an unknown nondecreasing regression function, with general average loss at design points. These bounds are optimal Lip to scale constants. and they imply uniform n(-1/3)-consistency of the l(p) risk for unknown regression functions of uniformly bounded variation, under mild assumptions on the joint probability distribution of the data, with possibly dependent observations.
