Bandwidth Selection in Nonparametric Regression with Large Sample Size
In the context of nonparametric regression estimation, the behaviour of kernel methods such as the Nadaraya-Watson or local linear estimators is heavily influenced by the value of the bandwidth parameter, which determines the trade-off between bias and ...

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the cost‐effectiveness of low‐dose colchicine prophylaxis for preventing gout flares when starting allopurinol using the “start‐low go‐slow” approach. Methods Participants with gout, fulfilling the American College of Rheumatology recommendations for starting urate‐lowering therapy and with serum urate

Objective The objective was to identify factors determining acute arthritis resolution and safety with colchicine and prednisone in acute calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystal arthritis. Methods We conducted a post hoc analysis of the COLCHICORT trial, which compared colchicine and prednisone for the treatment of acute CPP crystal arthritis, using a ...

Non-parametric calibration estimation of distribution function under stratified random sampling
We introduced an innovative kernel-based nonparametric estimator for the cumulative distribution function (CDF) in finite populations, addressing the critical need to evaluate the proportion of values in a target variable that are less than or equal to ...

Nonparametric Statistical Methods
Nonparametric methods are appropriate when certain assumptions about distributions that common parametric methods make are questionable. In this entry, we review nonparametric statistical tests based on exact or simulated sampling distributions. We also discuss methods for nonparametric data exploration and nonparametric regression and we explain ...
