Asymptotics for polynomial spline regression under weak conditions
نویسنده
چکیده
We derive rate of convergence for spline regression under weak conditions. The results improve upon those in Huang (Ann. Statist. 26 (1998a) 242) in two ways. Firstly, results are obtained under less stringent conditions on the growing rate of the number of knots. Secondly, L2 approximation instead of L∞ approximation by splines are used to bound the rate of convergence, this allows us to obtain results when the regression function or its components in ANOVA decomposition are in broader function classes. c © 2003 Elsevier B.V.

Local Asymptotics for Polynomial Spline Regression
In this paper we develop a general theory of local asymptotics for least squares estimates over polynomial spline spaces in a regression problem. The polynomial spline spaces we consider include univariate splines, tensor product splines, and bivariate or multivariate splines on triangulations. We establish asymptotic normality of the estimate and study the magnitude of the bias due to spline a...
متن کاملNON-POLYNOMIAL SPLINE SOLUTIONS FOR SPECIAL NONLINEAR FOURTH-ORDER BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS
We present a sixth-order non-polynomial spline method for the solutions of two-point nonlinear boundary value problem u(4)+f(x,u)=0, u(a)=α1, u''(a)= α2, u(b)= β1,u''(b)= β2, in off step points. Numerical method of sixth-order with end conditions of the order 6 is derived. The convergence analysis of the method has been discussed. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the applications ...
متن کاملFrom Finite Sample to Asymptotics: a Geometric Bridge for Selection Criteria in Spline Regression
This paper studies, under the setting of spline regression, the connection between finite-sample properties of selection criteria and their asymptotic counterparts, focusing on bridging the gap between the two. We introduce a bias-variance decomposition of the prediction error, using which it is shown that in the asymptotics the bias term dominates the variability term, providing an explanation...
متن کاملOn piecewise polynomial regression under general dependence conditions, with an application to calcium-imaging data
Motivated by the analysis of glomerular time series extracted from calciumimaging data, asymptotic theory for piecewise polynomial and spline regression with partially free knots and residuals exhibiting three types of dependence structures (long memory, short memory and anti-persistence) is considered. Unified formulas based on fractional calculus are derived for subordinated residual processe...
متن کاملSingle-Index Model-Assisted Estimation In Survey Sampling
A model-assisted semiparametric method of estimating finite population totals is investigated to improve the precision of survey estimators by incorporating multivariate auxiliary information. The proposed superpopulation model is a single-index model which has proven to be a simple and efficient semiparametric tool in multivariate regression. A class of estimators based on polynomial spline re...
