广义惩罚样条平滑的若干渐近结果AI 解读

Summary The paper discusses asymptotic properties of penalized spline smoothing if the spline basis increases with the sample size. The proof is provided in a generalized smoothing model allowing for non-normal responses. The results are extended in two ways. First, assuming the spline coefficients to be a priori normally distributed links the smoothing framework to generalized linear mixed models. We consider the asymptotic rates such that the Laplace approximation is…

相关误差下惩罚样条平滑的一则说明AI 解读

We investigate the behavior of data-driven smoothing parameters for penalized spline regression in the presence of correlated data. It has been shown for other smoothing methods that mean squared error minimizers, such as (generalized) cross-validation or the Akaike information criterion, are extremely sensitive to misspecifications of the correlation structure resulting in over- or (under-)fitting the data. In contrast to this, we show that a maximum likelihood–based choice…

广义加性模型辅助的森林资源估计AI 解读

Multiphase surveys are often conducted in forest inventories, with the goal of estimating forested area and tree characteristics over large regions. This article describes how design-based estimation of such quantities, based on information gathered during ground visits of sampled plots, can be made more precise by incorporating auxiliary information available from remote sensing. The relationship between the ground visit measurements and the remote sensing variables is…

夹心协方差矩阵估计效率的一则札记AI 解读

The sandwich estimator, also known as robust covariance matrix estimator, heteroscedasticity-consistent covariance matrix estimate, or empirical covariance matrix estimator, has achieved increasing use in the econometric literature as well as with the growing popularity of generalized estimating equations. Its virtue is that it provides consistent estimates of the covariance matrix for parameter estimates even when the fitted parametric model fails to hold or is not even…

针对光滑备择的广义线性与半参数模型检验AI 解读

Summary We propose goodness-of-fit tests for testing generalized linear models and semiparametric regression models against smooth alternatives. The focus is on models having both continous and factorial covariates. As a smooth extension of a parametric or semiparametric model we use generalized varying-coefficient models as proposed by Hastie and Tibshirani. A likelihood ratio statistic is used for testing. Asymptotic expansions allow us to write the estimates as linear…
