Nonparametric regression, confidence regions and regularization
非参数回归、置信区域与正则化
In this paper we offer a unified approach to the problem of nonparametric regression on the unit interval. It is based on a universal, honest and nonasymptotic confidence region $\mathcal{A}_{n}$ which is defined by a set of linear inequalities involving the values of the functions at the design points. Interest will typically center on certain simplest functions in $\mathcal{A}_{n}$ where simplicity can be defined in terms of shape (number of local extremes, intervals of…
