Variance function estimation in multivariate nonparametric regression with fixed design
Variance function estimation in multivariate nonparametric regression is considered and the minimax rate of convergence is established in the iid Gaussian case. Our work uses the approach that generalizes the one used in [A. Munk, Bissantz, T. Wagner, G. Freitag, On difference based variance estimation in nonparametric regression when the covariate is high dimensional, J. R. Stat. Soc. B 67 (Pa...
متن کاملOptimal Difference-based Variance Estimation in Heteroscedastic Nonparametric Regression
Estimating the residual variance is an important question in nonparametric regression. Among the existing estimators, the optimal difference-based variance estimation proposed in Hall, Kay, and Titterington (1990) is widely used in practice. Their method is restricted to the situation when the errors are independent and identically distributed. In this paper, we propose the optimal difference-b...
متن کاملVariance Function Estimation in Multivariate Nonparametric Regression
Variance function estimation in multivariate nonparametric regression is considered and the minimax rate of convergence is established. Our work uses the approach that generalizes the one used in Munk et al (2005) for the constant variance case. As is the case when the number of dimensions d = 1, and very much contrary to the common practice, it is often not desirable to base the estimator of t...
متن کاملOn conditional variance estimation in nonparametric regression
In this paper we consider a nonparametric regression model in which the conditional variance function is assumed to vary smoothly with the predictor. We offer an easily implemented and fully Bayesian approach that involves the Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling of standard distributions. This method is based on a technique utilized by Kim, Shephard, and Chib (1998) for the stochastic volatility ...
متن کاملOptimal Estimation of Derivatives in Nonparametric Regression
We propose a simple framework for estimating derivatives without fitting the regression function in nonparametric regression. Unlike most existing methods that use the symmetric difference quotients, our method is constructed as a linear combination of observations. It is hence very flexible and applicable to both interior and boundary points, including most existing methods as special cases of...
