摘要:We consider nonparametric estimation of mean regression and conditional variance (or volatility) functions in nonlinear stochastic regression models. Simultaneous confidence bands are constructed and the coverage probabilities are shown to be asymptotically correct. The imposed dependence structure allows applications in many linear and nonlinear autoregressive processes. The results are applied to the S&P 500 Index data.

摘要:The curse of dimensionality has remained a challenge for high-dimensional data analysis in statistics'. The sliced inverse regression (SIR) and canonical correlation (CANCOR) methods aim to reduce the dimensionality of data by replacing the explanatory variables with a small number of composite directions without losing much information. However, the estimated composite directions generally involve all of the variables, making their interpretation difficult. To simplify the direction estimates...

摘要:Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) aims to locate activated regions in human brains when specific tasks are performed. The conventional tool for analyzing fMRI data applies some variant of the linear model, which is restrictive in modeling assumptions. To yield more accurate prediction of the time-course behavior of neuronal responses, the semiparametric inference for the underlying hemodynamic response function is developed to identify significantly activated voxels. Under mild regu...

摘要:We consider a time series X = (X-k, k is an element of Z) with memory parameter d(0) is an element of R. This time series is either stationary or can be made stationary after differencing a finite number of times. We study the local Whittle wavelet estimator of the memory parameter d(0). This is a wavelet-based semiparametric pseudo-likelihood maximum method estimator. The estimator may depend on a given finite range of scales or on a range which becomes infinite with the sample size. We show ...

摘要:Let f : [0, 1)(d) -> R be an integrable function. An objective of many computer experiments is to estimate integral(d)([0, 1)) f (x) dx by evaluating f at a finite number of points in [0, 1)(d). There is a design issue in the choice of these points and a popular choice is via the use of randomized orthogonal arrays. This article proves a multivariate central limit theorem for a class of randomized orthogonal array sampling designs [Owen Statist. Sinica 2 (1992a) 439-452] as well as for a class...

摘要:Meinshausen and Buhlmann [Ann. Statist. 34 (2006) 1436-1462] showed that, for neighborhood selection in Gaussian graphical models, under a neighborhood stability condition, the LASSO is consistent, even when the number of variables is of greater order than the sample size. Zhao and Yu [(2006) J. Machine Learning Research 7 2541-2567] formalized the neighborhood stability condition in the context of linear regression as a strong irrepresentable condition. That paper showed that under this condi...

摘要:We show that nonparametric regression is asymptotically equivalent, in Le Cam's sense, to a sequence of Gaussian white noise experiments as the number of observations tends to infinity. We propose a general constructive framework, based on approximation spaces, which allows asymptotic equivalence to be achieved, even in the cases of multivariate and random design.
