Partial Linear Quantile Regression and Bootstrap Confidence Bands [PDF]
In this paper uniform confidence bands are constructed for nonparametric quantile estimates of regression functions. The method is based on the bootstrap, where resampling is done from a suitably estimated empirical density function (edf) for residuals ...

Abstract Previously, developers of soil moisture monitoring networks have determined how many sensors to use and their installation depths with little objective guidance, which led to heavy reliance on suboptimal past precedents when deploying new networks. One such network, the Oklahoma Hydronet, is being developed to monitor water stored in the state'

The Stochastic Fluctuation of the Quantile Regression Curve [PDF]
Let (X1, Y1), . . ., (Xn, Yn) be i.i.d. rvs and let l(x) be the unknown p-quantile regression curve of Y on X. A quantile-smoother ln(x) is a localised, nonlinear estimator of l(x).

Abstract Bayesian Causal Networks (BCNs) are adapted to investigate causal factors of hydroclimate variability in the Brahmaputra River Basin (BRB) during the seasonal and sub‐seasonal periods. This is the longest monsoonal river system in India, prone to frequent severe flooding.

This work addresses the problem of the nonparametric estimation of the regression function, namely the conditional distribution and the conditional quantile in the single functional index model (SFIM) under the independent and identically distributed ...

How do ecologists estimate occupancy in practice?
Over 20 years ago, ecologists were introduced to the site occupancy model (SOM) for estimating occupancy rates from detection‐nondetection data. In the ensuing decades, the SOM and its hierarchical modeling extensions have become mainstays of quantitative ecology, and estimating occupancy rates has become one of the most common applications of ...

Monitoring panels of sparse functional data
Panels of random functions are common in applications of functional data analysis. They often occur when sequences of functions are observed at a number of different locations. We propose a methodology to monitor for structural breaks in such panels and to identify the changing components with statistical certainty.

Gradual Changes in Functional Time Series
ABSTRACT We consider the problem of detecting gradual changes in the sequence of mean functions from a not necessarily stationary functional time series. Our approach is based on the maximum deviation (calculated over a given time interval) between a benchmark function and the mean functions at different time points.

ABSTRACT In this paper, we propose a new test for the detection of a change in a non‐linear (auto‐)regressive time series as well as a corresponding estimator for the unknown time point of the change. To this end, we consider an at‐most‐one‐change model and approximate the unknown (auto‐)regression function by a neural network with one hidden layer. It
