Search for significant variables in nonparametric additive regression
非参数加性回归中的重要变量搜索
Nonparametric additive regression is studied under the assumption that only a subset of nonparametric components is nonzero. Each of these nonzero components depends on its own particular explanatory variable, called a significant variable. The search problem for significant variables is considered and an algorithm is proposed which guarantees exponentially decreasing error probabilities as the sample size grows. We show that it is reasonable to use a rough bin estimator…
