Scalar-on-function local linear regression and beyond
标量对函数的局部线性回归及其扩展
Summary It is common to want to regress a scalar response on a random function. This paper presents results that advocate local linear regression based on a projection as a nonparametric approach to this problem. Our asymptotic results demonstrate that functional local linear regression outperforms its functional local constant counterpart. Beyond the estimation of the regression operator itself, local linear regression is also a useful tool for predicting the functional…
