Automatic bandwidth choice and confidence intervals in nonparametric regression
非参数回归的自动带宽选择与置信区间
In the present paper we combine the issues of bandwidth choice and construction of confidence intervals in nonparametric regression. Main emphasis is put on fully data-driven methods. We modify the $\sqrt{n}$-consistent bandwidth selector of Härdle, Hall and Marron such that it is appropriate for heteroscedastic data, and we show how one can optimally choose the bandwidth g of the pilot estimator $\hat{m}_g$. Then we consider classical confidence intervals based on kernel…
