Outliers vs Robustness in Nonparametric Methods of Regression

Acta Universitatis Lodziensis. Folia Oeconomica, 2018
The article addresses the question of how robust methods of regression are against outliers in a given data set. In the first part, we presented the selected methods used to detect outliers.

Nonparametric depth and quantile regression for functional data [PDF]

Bernoulli, 2016
We investigate nonparametric regression methods based on spatial depth and quantiles when the response and the covariate are both functions. As in classical quantile regression for finite dimensional data, regression techniques developed here provide ...

Multi-Task Nonparametric Regression Under Joint Sparsity

IEEE Access
This study investigates a multi-task estimation under joint sparsity. We consider estimating multiple functions when functions of interest share common sparsity patterns.

Spatially-adaptive sensing in nonparametric regression

, 2013
While adaptive sensing has provided improved rates of convergence in sparse regression and classification, results in nonparametric regression have so far been restricted to quite specific classes of functions.

On concurvity in nonlinear and nonparametric regression models

Statistica, 2014
When data are affected by multicollinearity in the linear regression framework, then concurvity will be present in fitting a generalized additive model (GAM). The term concurvity describes nonlinear dependencies among the predictor variables.

Fuzzy sets in nonparametric Bayes regression

, 2008
A simple Bayesian approach to nonparametric regression is described using fuzzy sets and membership functions. Membership functions are interpreted as likelihood functions for the unknown regression function, so that with the help of a reference prior ...

Automatic Construction and Natural-Language Description of Nonparametric Regression Models [PDF]

AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2014
This paper presents the beginnings of an automatic statistician, focusing on regression problems. Our system explores an open-ended space of statistical models to discover a good explanation of a data set, and then produces a detailed report with ...

Powerful nonparametric checks for quantile regression [PDF]

, 2014
We address the issue of lack-of-fit testing for a parametric quantile regression. We propose a simple test that involves one-dimensional kernel smoothing, so that the rate at which it detects local alternatives is independent of the number of covariates.

Confidence sets for nonparametric wavelet regression

, 2005
We construct nonparametric confidence sets for regression functions using wavelets that are uniform over Besov balls. We consider both thresholding and modulation estimators for the wavelet coefficients.

Robust nonparametric estimation via wavelet median regression [PDF]

, 2008
In this paper we develop a nonparametric regression method that is simultaneously adaptive over a wide range of function classes for the regression function and robust over a large collection of error distributions, including those that are heavy-tailed,
