Description:

This book provides a systematic in-depth analysis of nonparametric regression with random design. It covers almost all known estimates such as classical local averaging estimates including kernel, partitioning and nearest neighbor estimates, least squares estimates using splines, neural networks and radial basis function networks, penalized least squares estimates, local polynomial kernel estimates, and orthogonal series estimates. The emphasis is on distribution-free properties of the estimates. Most consistency results are valid for all distributions of the data. Whenever it is not possible to derive distribution-free results, as in the case of the rates of convergence, the emphasis is on…
