The logarithm of the relative risk function in a proportional hazards model involving one or more possibly time-dependent covariates is treated as a specified sum of a constant term, main effects, and selected interaction terms. Maximum partial likelihood estimation is used, where the maximization is taken over a suitably chosen finite-dimensional estimation space, whose dimension increases with the sample size and which is constructed from linear spaces of functions of one…
An automatic procedure that uses linear splines and their tensor products is proposed for fitting a regression model to data involving a polychotomous response variable and one or more predictors. The fitted model can be used for multiple classification. The automatic fitting procedure involves maximum likelihood estimation, stepwise addition, stepwise deletion, and model selection by the Akaike information criterion, cross-validation, or an independent test set. A modified…

Linear splines and their tensor products are used to estimate the conditional log-hazard function based on possibly censored, positive response data and one or more covariates. An automatic procedure involving the maximum likelihood method, stepwise addition, stepwise deletion, and the Bayes Information Criterion is used to select the final model. The possible models contain proportional hazards models as a subclass, which makes it possible to diagnose departures from…

Let $\varphi$ be the regression or logistic or Poisson regression function of $\mathbf{Y}$ on $\mathbf{X}(N = 1)$ or the logarithm of the density function of $\mathbf{Y}$ or the conditional density function of $\mathbf{Y}$ on $\mathbf{X}$. Consider the approximation $\varphi^\ast$ to $\varphi$ having a suitably defined form involving a…
Consider a stationary time series $(\mathbf{X}_t, Y_t), t = 0, \pm 1,\ldots,$ with $\mathbf{X}_t$ being $\mathbb{R}^d$-valued and $Y_t$ real-valued. The conditional mean function is given by $\theta(\mathbf{X}_0) = E(Y_0\mid\mathbf{X}_0)$. Under appropriate regularity conditions, a local average estimator of this function based on a finite realization $(\mathbf{X}_1, Y_1),\ldots,(\mathbf{X}_n, Y_n)$ can be chosen to achieve the optimal rate of convergence $n^{-1/(2 + d)}$ bot…
Consider a $\mathscr{Y}$-valued response variable having a density function $f(\cdot\mid x)$ that depends on an $\mathscr{X}$-valued input variable $x.$ It is assumed that $\mathscr{X}$ and $\mathscr{Y}$ are compact intervals and that $f(\cdot\mid\cdot)$ is continuous and positive on $\mathscr{X} \times \mathscr{Y}.$ Let $F(\cdot\mid x)$ denote the distribution function of $f(\cdot\mid x)$ and let $Q(\cdot\mid x)$ denote its quantile function.

Let $f$ be a continuous and positive unknown density on a known compact interval $\mathscr{Y}$. Let $F$ denote the distribution function of $f$ and let $Q = F^{-1}$ denote its quantile function. A finite-parameter exponential family model based on $B$-splines is constructed. Maximum-likelihood estimation of the parameters of the model based on a random sample of size $n$ from $f$ yields estimates $\hat{f, F}$ and $\hat{Q}$ of $f, F$ and $Q$, respectively. Under mild…

Let $(X, Y)$ be a pair of random variables such that $X = (X_1, \cdots, X_J)$ and let $f$ by a function that depends on the joint distribution of $(X, Y).$ A variety of parametric and nonparametric models for $f$ are discussed in relation to flexibility, dimensionality, and interpretability. It is then supposed that each $X_j \in \lbrack 0, 1\rbrack,$ that $Y$ is real valued with mean $\mu$ and finite variance, and that $f$ is the regression function of $Y$ on $X.$ Let $f^\ast,$…
Kernel estimates of an unknown multivariate density are investigated, with mild restrictions being placed on the kernel. A window selection rule is considered, which can be interpreted in terms of cross-validation. Under the mild assumption that the unknown density and its one-dimensional marginals are bounded, the rule is shown to be asymptotically optimal. This strengthens recent results of Peter Hall.
