Confidence Intervals for Nonparametric Regression
In non-parametric function estimation, providing a confidence interval with the right coverage is a challenging problem. This is especially the case when the underlying function has a wide range of unknown degrees of smoothness. Here we propose two methods of constructing an average coverage confidence interval built from block shrinkage estimation methods. One is based on the James-Stein shrin...
متن کاملBootstrap Confidence Bands in Nonparametric Regression
In the present paper we construct asymptotic conndence bands in non-parametric regression. Our assumptions admit unequal variances of the observations and nonuniform, possibly considerably clustered design. The conndence band is based on an undersmoothed local linear estimator, and an appropriate quantile is obtained via the wild bootstrap made popular by HH ardle and Mammen (1990). We derive c...
متن کاملNonparametric Confidence Intervals Based on Extreme Bootstrap Percentiles
Monte Carlo approximation of standard bootstrap confidence intervals relies on the drawing of a large number, B say, of bootstrap resamples. Conventional choice of B is often made on the order of 1,000. While this choice may prove to be more than sufficient for some cases, it may be far from adequate for others. A new approach is suggested to construct confidence intervals based on extreme boot...
متن کاملBootstrap confidence intervals in nonparametric regression with built-in bias correction
The problem of estimating nonparametric regression with associated confidence intervals is addressed. It is shown that through appropriate choice of infinite order kernel, it is possible to construct bootstrap confidence intervals which do not require either explicit bias correction or suboptimal levels of smoothing at any stage of the estimation. In particular, it is demonstrated that in this ...

notion the theoretical distribution on the random variable ) is not available. All we have ICOTS8 (2010) Invited Paper Engel International Association of Statistical Education (IASE) www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~iase/ to rely on are the data at hand, i.e. the sample or recapture of size n. These data–if drawn by some random mechanism–may well be taken as a good representation of the total fish popu...
