Oracally Efficient Two-Step Estimation of Generalized Additive Model [PDF]
The generalized additive model (GAM) is a multivariate nonparametric regression tool for non-Gaussian responses including binary and count data. We propose a spline-backfitted kernel (SBK) estimator for the component functions and the constant, which are oracally efficient under weak dependence.

Awareness of ORAC assay among dental students
The Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity (ORAC) assay estimates the suppression of radical-mediated oxidation by molecules of concern. This calculates the quality as equivalent and provides both repression duration and the degree of oxidation suppression. This same test could be used to calculate the antioxidant capacity of nutrition.
