Estimating a Convex Function in Nonparametric Regression [PDF]
Abstract. A new nonparametric estimate of a convex regression function is proposed and its stochastic properties are studied. The method starts with an unconstrained estimate of the derivative of the regression function, which is firstly isotonized and then integrated.

Max-Linear Regression by Convex Programming
We consider the multivariate max-linear regression problem where the model parameters $\boldsymbolβ_{1},\dotsc,\boldsymbolβ_{k}\in\mathbb{R}^{p}$ need to be estimated from $n$ independent samples of the (noisy) observations $y = \max_{1\leq j \leq k} \boldsymbolβ_{j}^{\mathsf{T}} \boldsymbol{x} + \mathrm{noise}$. The max-linear model vastly generalizes

Bayesian nonparametric multivariate convex regression
In many applications, such as economics, operations research and reinforcement learning, one often needs to estimate a multivariate regression function f subject to a convexity constraint. For example, in sequential decision processes the value of a state under optimal subsequent decisions may be known to be convex or concave. We propose a new Bayesian

Efficiency of Indian General Insurance Companies: A Convex Nonparametric Least Squares Approach
In the current millennium, the Indian general insurance market has witnessed major structural changes because of the establishment of a market regulator and the initiation of entry deregulation.

This morning during the lecture on nonlinear regression, I mentioned (very) briefly the case of convex regression. Since I forgot to mention the codes in R, I will publish them here.

A dual active set algorithm for optimal sparse convex regression
The shape-constrained problems in statistics have attracted much attention in recent decades. One of them is the task of finding the best fitting monotone regression. The problem of constructing monotone regression (also called isotonic regression) is to
