A Spline Smoothing Newton Method for Semi-Infinite Minimax Problems
Based on discretization methods for solving semi-infinite programming problems, this paper presents a spline smoothing Newton method for semi-infinite minimax problems. The spline smoothing technique uses a smooth cubic spline instead of max function and

Calibration of Computational Models With Categorical Parameters and Correlated Outputs via Bayesian Smoothing Spline ANOVA [PDF]
It has become commonplace to use complex computer models to predict outcomes in regions where data do not exist. Typically these models need to be calibrated and validated using some experimental data, which often consists of multiple correlated outcomes.

A comparison of spatial analysis methods for the construction of topographic maps of retinal cell density. [PDF]
Topographic maps that illustrate variations in the density of different neuronal sub-types across the retina are valuable tools for understanding the adaptive significance of retinal specialisations in different species of vertebrates. To date, such maps

Smoothing Spline ANOVA Models and their Applications in Complex and Massive Datasets
Complex and massive datasets can be easily accessed using the newly developed data acquisition technology. In spite of the fact that the smoothing spline ANOVA models have proven to be useful in a variety of fields, these datasets impose the challenges ...

Use of nonparametric regression methods for developing a local stem form model
A local mean stem curve of spruce was represented using regression splines. Abilities of smoothing spline and P-spline to model the mean stem curve were evaluated using data of 85 carefully measured stems of Norway spruce. For both techniques the optimal

A-Spline Regression for Fitting a Nonparametric Regression Function with Censored Data
This paper aims to solve the problem of fitting a nonparametric regression function with right-censored data. In general, issues of censorship in the response variable are solved by synthetic data transformation based on the Kaplan–Meier estimator in the

Estimating conditional heteroscedastic nonlinear autoregressive model by using smoothing spline and penalized spline methods [PDF]
We propose smoothing spline (SS) and penalized spline (PS) methods in a class of nonparametric regression methods for estimating the unknown functions in a conditional heteroscedastic nonlinear autoregressive (CHNLAR) model.

Efficient algorithms for robust generalized cross-validation spline smoothing
Generalized cross-validation (GCV) is a widely used parameter selection criterion for spline smoothing, but it can give poor results if the sample size n is not sufficiently large.
