摘要:Application of nonparametric and semiparametric regression techniques to high-dimensional time series data has been hampered due to the lack of effective tools to address the curse of dimensionality. Under rather weak conditions, we propose spline-backfitted kernel estimators of the component functions for the nonlinear additive time series data that are both computationally expedient so they are usable for analyzing very high-dimensional time series, and theoretically reliable so inference ca...

摘要:In many applications of multiple hypothesis testing where more than one false rejection can be tolerated, procedures controlling error rates measuring at least k false rejections, instead of at least one, for some fixed k >= 1 can potentially increase the ability of a procedure to detect false null hypotheses. The k-FWER, a generalized version of the usual familywise error rate (FWER), is such an error rate that has recently been introduced in the literature and procedures controlling it have ...

摘要:Theoretical developments on cross validation (CV) have mainly focused on selecting one among a list of finite-dimensional models (e.g., subset or order selection in linear regression) or selecting a smoothing parameter (e.g., bandwidth for kernel smoothing). However, little is known about consistency of cross validation when applied to compare between parametric and nonparametric methods or within nonparametric methods. We show that under some conditions, with an appropriate choice of data spl...

摘要:We introduce a useful tool for analyzing boosting algorithms called the smooth margin function, a differentiable approximation of the usual margin for boosting algorithms. We present two boosting algorithms based on this smooth margin, coordinate ascent boosting and approximate coordinate ascent boosting, which are similar to Freund and Schapire's AdaBoost algorithm and Breiman's arc-gv algorithm. We give convergence rates to the maximum margin solution for both of our algorithms and for arc-g...

摘要:Longitudinal studies are often conducted to explore the cohort and age effects in many scientific areas. The within cluster correlation structure plays a very important role in longitudinal data analysis. This is because not only can an estimator be improved by incorporating the within cluster correlation structure into the estimation procedure, but also the within cluster correlation structure can sometimes provide valuable insights in practical problems. For example, it can reveal the correl...

摘要:In this paper we propose two new methods to estimate the dimension-reduction directions of the central subspace (CS) by constructing a regression model such that the directions are all captured in the regression mean. Compared with the inverse regression estimation methods [e.g., J. Amer Statist. Assoc. 86 (1991) 328-332, J Amer Statist. Assoc. 86 (1991) 316-342, J Amer Statist. Assoc. 87 (1992) 1025-1039], the new methods require no strong assumptions on the design of covariates or the functi...
